Wow, that's impressive. My daughter liked it too.

The fungus on our tree is quite large and it's right down at the base. We had a 
smaller tree down by the river which split and fell in a storm a few months 
ago. That one was rotten inside with fungus on its trunk that we hadn't 
noticed. We've been thinking about getting some arborists in at some stage 
anyway, sadly the two trees with fungus were ones I'd been wanting to keep.

Cheers,
Dave

I'm not sure whether the tree was still alive. Seeing mushrooms like that on a 
trunk was a surprise to me as well. There were several clusters at different 
heights. The one I photographed was at about my head height.

I've seen very small mushrooms growing from crevices of tree trunks before but 
nothing this big.  We have some impressive bracket fungi on our property, one 
on an old stump and another on a living tree, which is probably going to have 
to be cut down as a result as it'll be weakening the wood.

Í don't know. Contrary to eastern and southern Europeans, most people
in our area have little knowledge of the edibility of mushrooms and
are cautious therefore.
And it is officially forbidden to gather mushrooms in our nature reservates.
I once followed a short course in fungi and in the field the
instructor chewed on many mushrooms as a way of identifying.

Nice photos!

I don’t think I’ve seen a cluster of mushroom growing out of a tree trunk such 
as those in the first pic. Is the tree alive or dead?

Of course it is hard for me to tell from the other side of the world,
but in my European books it looks closest to Rhodotus palmatus (netted
Rhodotus or rosy veincap). Though rare in W-Europe a spike has been
seen of this mushroom due to the Dutch elm disease.

Yes, I'm aware of that. There's no chance of me trying to eat one as I don't 
like mushrooms anyway. I've also mentioned to my daughter many times that many 
poisonous mushrooms look like edible ones so she knows not to handle them.

I like both shots but have a slight preference for the fly agaric..  The 
first one is fascinating though.. it looks like something we -should- 
know..


aside to Ralf - I think Dave knows that - since he named it .  The nice 
thing about it's looks -it isn't likely to be confused with a anything 
edible.
