You may still have real flowers where you are, but I have frost flowers, so there.
Much closer view of a frost tuft. You can see a really neat feather-like structure in the frost. In the background, out of focus, is the fluffy white dog.
A closer view of the little frost tufts next to a boot for scale, They're maybe quarter-sized?
A closer view of the frozen pond with little tufts of frost growing all over it. The fluffy white dog is rolling around and happily destroying a bunch of the frost.
A view of a small frozen dugout pond, with a person in a red jacket kneeling on the edge and 2 dogs wandering around. The trees in the background and all the grass is completely covered by frost. The sky above is blue.
