Wrinkled peach fungi

Thursday, September 30th 2010

This Wild Arum also known as Lords and Ladies is up in the woodland. The beautiful red berries of this plant are poisonous. There is plenty more fungi all around the reserve in all shapes, sizes and colours.

This unmistakable fungi was photographed by Michaela. It is called Wrinkled Peach and was found growing on an old tree stump. The recent rain has encouraged a whole new range of mushrooms to appear all across the reserve. Candle snuff, puffballs, inkcaps and Fly agaric are just a few examples.
