Took some pictures of this red coral fungi today. It comes in red like this and then fades with age. My previous images were taken when it was a little older and were more pinky colour. Red Coral Mushroom, Ramaria araiospora Some fungi turn red with age but this starts out that colour. ( photo / image / picture from Kildale's Garden )
I can clearly see how the fungi got its name.It really does look like coral doesn't it? What a lovely thing it is and must stand out at this time of year.
OOOh Kildale that is just to beautiful looking. My Mom and I use to love to go searching for neat fungi in the fall in the oak woods near her home. Again that is a really neat pic. Thanks for sharing it,
With three new ones yesterday to add to the fungi page, I have 200 species now in the web site.There are over 800 species in the area so I have a few more to go yet.
