When buried by snowfall, surface hoar may be considered depth hoar. The crystals formed by surface hoar are usually leaf-, fern- or plate-shaped and facetted. Two types of surface hoar are the fernlike ice crystals deposited directly on a snow surface and the hoarfrost that has grown primarily in two dimensions, as on a window or other smooth surface.
