Coral and Finger Mushrooms

Don't have a lot of photos of these, but they're neat. Photos mine, unedited.

Artomyces pyxidatus, the crown-tipped coral mushroom, is edible and a neat texture in soup.

Clavaria fragilis, fairy fingers, are also edible but I didn't know what it was at the time of the photos and so haven't used them yet.

Clavaria zollingeri, violet coral, is edible as well, but I didn't know what this was at the time either and haven't seen it since.

Xylaria polymorpha, dead man's fingers, are great in frittata! This is the stage you want them in. I really should photos of a full flush, but I always get excited when they come up and start picking. lol You can see the stumps of some I grabbed.

Word of caution: cook all wild edible mushrooms before eating. Even if they don't poison you immediately they can have longterm effects.

Word of ethics: leave a third of the young ones you find in the wild and only if there are a lot of them.

Tibbs Run Preserve, Panel 1 of 3. Beneath the moist dripping vaults of the primeval green cathedral gather the true believers: moss, fungi, and ferns. The old hemlock forest ministers silently, relentlessly to its devoted congregation, heathens and pagans all, and adorns the ruins of its trespassers in moss and rhododendron. None but nature shall endure.

From last week - crown-tipped coral (Artomyces pyxidatus), some deer shield mushrooms, dryad's saddle and what was possibly the last Stropharia of the season. Also wolf's milk slime mold (Lycogala epidendrum)

Now the wait for summer mushrooms begins

Artomyces pyxidatus, or the crown-tipped coral fungus is a rare find out here in the west. They’re far more commonly found on the east coast. Weird to think that this is a mushroom!

#mushroom #foraging #can i use that tag even if they’re inedible? still found while out looking for boletes!

Part 2: Early Summer Wildflower Palooza, Cranberry Glades. During the first week of July, as the orchids are peaking in the bogs and seeps, the first wave of summer wildflowers, including the milkweeds and beebalms, arrives in earnest, bringing a blaze of color to open meadows and bog and forest margins. In the old growth woods of the adjacent Cranberry Wilderness, an array of strange and beautiful fungi sprout from moss-covered logs and the forest floor.

From top: tall meadow rue (Thalictrum pubescens), also known as king of the meadow, a wetlands-loving perennial whose distinctive, cream-colored flowers are composed of thread-like stamens only; meadow phlox (Phlox maculata), also known as wild sweet William and spotted phlox, easily distinguished from other phlox species by its red-spotted stems; mountain wood sorrel (Oxalis montana); a ramp (Allium tricoccum) flower, which emerges in early summer on a leafless stalk, after the foliage has died back; a shiny hemlock varnish shelf (Ganoderma tsugae) assailed by pleasing fungus beetles (Megalodacne), rarely seen because they hide under leaf litter during the day and feed on Ganoderma fungi at night; a lovely colony of crown-tipped corals (Artomyces pyxidatus); the beguiling fringed loosestrife (Lysimachia ciliata), an aggressively-colonizing perennial that makes for a shady ground cover in native wildflower gardens; and that blazingly-beautiful mint, scarlet beebalm (Monarda didyma), whose storied history as a medicinal herb stems from its antiseptic and stimulant properties.
