    Anyone know what this bracket might be on this Pinus Sylvestris? Phellinus Pini? or something else?

    Had the opportunity to get to nearby Windsor Great Park. This Oak looked particularly interesting
  3. AJStrees
    Yes, leaving it at the moment. Its a fairly old and nice wildlife habitat tree with bees, birds and such. Potentially owls as well. Would be interested to know whats inside it though.
  4. AJStrees
    Quite a lump

    Is it the beef steak fungus? Interesting shape and colouring, does look aged. Fistulina Hepatica. Good to know. We had a different shape and colour of the same on the base of a sweet chestnut last week.

    Will check it out, never was able to download the arbtalk app. So this sounds like it could be a winner. Thanks.

    The first two are both fungi I photographed this week in a smaller state, they have since evolved into much larger mushrooms. The third is on the base of a large old oak and the slime flux (wetwood) is running down the trunk of another old oak.

    I attended the Ancient Tree Forum event in Hamsptead Heath today. Fantastic walk and also fantastic trees. I thought I would share a few.

    Jolly good, thanks for that. I was going to say that, but thought it best to check first. It has appeared at the base of one of our more mature Sweet Chestnut trees. Good to know, thanks.

    Looks to me like the first one is honey fungus, second not sure, third obvious. Any idea on the second one?
  11. AJStrees
    Yeah, this is the honey fungus we had growing at the base of the weeping willow
  12. AJStrees
    some more fungi
  13. AJStrees
    Yes I think the soil is very fertile here and he seems to like it a lot.
  14. AJStrees
    Oh I see! Yes well let's hope that isn't too soon. I thought I would pop in a couple of shots of the Monterey we planted in 1997. Its already pretty big. Seems healthy now though.

    incredible timber production. Huge trees.

    I have looked again and you were right, the Sparassis was actually on the base of a Scots Pine (Pinus Sylvestris) which also has a bracket fungus growing on it at a high level and coming down the trunk slowly. Big pine tree.

    You are a mighty oak. Grow even stronger with our collection of programmes about trees. Your score: 10/10 Share your result Facebook Twitter Email
  19. AJStrees
    There is a lot of it about!
  20. AJStrees
    Yes there is a bit more info on it. However I would like to see some results. Don't know if anyone out there has already used this or not.

    By the way Monterey pines are extremely fast growing. We planted ours in 1997 and it is huge and looks mature with a large girth.
  22. AJStrees
    We had brown needles on the Monterey on our grounds, but this was in summer time when there was a bit of a drought. Did you look online at the pitch pine canker pictures to see?
  23. AJStrees
    Your second picture looks like it to me, but I am not expert by any means. I had some honey fungus on the base of a weeping willow that we had to dismantle in the end because it died. An Arboricultural consultant had reported it as honey fungus and looked the same to me.
  24. AJStrees
    Interesting. Yes there are many of the Sparassis species. Thanks again for the info.

    Hello, here are a few more fungi pictures from this week
