woohoo id climb it if i was allowed, they are oing landscaping and want to relay the path in front of it, i dont think they will be thinking much about the tree! i alreay told them to move the path further than 2ft from a sizeable holly stem, the ash is at the path edge and they want to dig it up and do it all level. such a shame!

pioneering old fungus, loves a lime too ...

 

... and all other deciduous and coniferous tree species associating with this not only in the pioneer, but also the final phase of the tree's life cycle present generalistic ectomycorrhizal symbiont.

2. here's what appears to be P i seemingly ectomycorrhyzal associated here on Beech ...

 

David,

1. What in your opinion is 6. M.v. then ?

2. ... or (also) fruiting as a saprotrophic from buried dead wood/roots of trees that were there before ?
