Abstract: We consider the limiting behavior of Teichmüller geodesics in the universal Teichmüller space . Our main result states that the limits of the Teichmüller geodesics in the Thurston's boundary of
may depend on both vertical and horizontal foliation of the corresponding holomorphic quadratic differential.
