crystallofolia (kris-tuh-loh-FOHL-ee-ah) - n., frost flowers.


A phenomenon in which layers of thin ice are drawn out of long-stemmed plants by capillary action and frozen in the air. Can form very pretty patterns that curl over and around, looking much like flowers. More info. Coinage that means "crystal flowers leaves."
