Picea engelmannii is a medium-sized to large evergreen tree growing to 25–40 metres (82–131 feet) tall, exceptionally to 65 m (213 ft) tall, and with a trunk diameter of up to 1.5 m (4 ft 11 in).
Inga feuilleei (named after Louis Feuillée [2]), commonly known as pacay or ice-cream bean tree, [3] is a tree in the family Fabaceae native to Andean valleys of northwestern South America. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Pacay trees, as is the case with other trees in genus Inga , produce pods that contain an edible white pulp and have nitrogen-fixing roots.
Types of frost flowers include needle ice, frost pillars, or frost columns, extruded from pores in the soil, and ice ribbons, rabbit frost, or rabbit ice, extruded from linear fissures in plant stems. [1] The term "ice flower" is also used as synonym for ice ribbons, but it may be used to describe the unrelated phenomenon of window frost as well.
The planting of new forests has increased the number of trees, but the result does not compare to the original forests. Some of the planted forests include introduced species . [ 85 ] The tallest tree in Iceland is a sitka spruce planted in 1949 in Kirkjubæjarklaustur ; it was measured at 25.2 m (83 ft) in 2013. [ 87 ]
The pendulous foliage only develops when the tree grows to about 1.5–2 m tall; young trees smaller than this (up to about 10–20 years old) are open-crowned with sparse, level branchlets. The shoots are orange-brown, with dense short pubescence about 0.2 millimeters long and very rough with pulvini 1–2 mm long.
Strong wind over the nearby lake fling water droplets which freeze against the trees and their branches, until near-horizontal icicles begin to form. Falling snow settles on the ice formations, and the end result is a grotesque figure of a tree. The effect of a full forest of such trees gives visitors a ghostly impression.
