    Hi there. Does anyone know what fungus this is? It appears to have killed the shrub (don't know what the shrub is as only recently moved here) it's grown on. Thought it may be honey fungus, but can't find the boot lace roots that are associated with it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks P1000873.JPG

    I dont think its honey fungus, more likely to have moved in after the shrub had died by other means.

      Looks as though you have lots of Ivy. That could have been the cause of the demise of the shrub.

        No, not Honey Fungus.

        Some sort of bracket fungus thats clearing up on a bit of already dead food.

          Thanks for your replies. Have decided to dig out the shrub, just in case.
