Frost flowers...

Frost flowers.  These are new to me – “flowers” made of ice extruded from long-stemmed plants or pieces of wood.  They mostly form in the fall, when there are wet plants and freezing temperatures.  Here's a Wikipedia article on them, and several collections of photos and information, here, here, and here.
