Wonders of the Woods

Rowdy (my pup) and i took a walk in the woods to the stream ,where he loves to pounce in the ice cold water.. brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr... Back to original story ... We walk in the woods often and i noticed on cold days by a certain kind of plant, and this plant only, there are cascades of ice around the base of this plant.. It sometimes comes out like christmas ribbon candy.. IT is amazing how it is only by this plant.. Any one know anything about this where you live.. HEre are the photos of this plant and the ice on it...
