Odd, this thread caught my attention. The photos display such an interesting phenomenon.

This a.m. after looking at your photos, I went out to walk and noticed a similar display on the stems of my Salvia coccinea... Many of the stems had burst. Our temp was 27 this morning.

Had I not seen your thread, I would have had no idea what was going on here... We recently had a good deal of moisture which may have caused this.

Salvia coccinea ~ Lady in Red... or Lady in Frost! Brrrr....
