Dear All, I was sent an image recently of a fungus growing in soil in a greenhouse in central London, any ideas? It is located in "Mark's bits & bobs" folder. ...
Looks to me like two very large brackets of Pleurotus ostreatus, possibly emerging from a fallen log that is hidden by the ferns. Any other suggestions? Ted. ...
Yea possibly Pluerotus, but cannot discount more exotic species, as it is growing in a greenhouse. Omphalotus nidiformis (Australasia) is very similar to an...
Hi folks, That photo sent to Mark sure looks aesthetically pleasing, doesn't it? But I'm not sure it's terribly helpful for ID purposes. Apart from the usual ...
Much more sensible suggestion from Andy. Then again, maybe if Mark eats it and then we check to see if *he* glows in the dark ... Anyway, both thanks and...
Hi Keir, How goes it? Did a freebie on Sept 1st, it was in the HH diary but not on my site, sorry about that, it was useless anyway, maybe we could arrange a...
Dear All, Thanks Andy, Keir & Ted for the comments on the unknown fungus. I have taken another look at the original image sent to me & I think Keir is probably...

Glad you are still with us. Most people might have waited for the research to be done first. All I can contribute is the knowledge that apparently it is...
