Description
Among the fascinating fungi we often encounter in woodland walks are the Artist’s Conk Mushrooms of Alkrinton Woods, scientifically known as Ganoderma applanatum. These impressive, shelf-like fungi are commonly found in Alkrington Woods, thriving on dead or decaying hardwood trees. Their tough, durable structure allows them to persist for many years, creating striking natural sculptures on fallen wood. A distinctive feature of the Conk is its white underside, which turns a rich brown when touched—making them a popular spot for nature enthusiasts to pause and ‘draw’ on the surface, hence their name. Their presence not only adds to the woodland’s biodiversity but also highlights the intricate relationships within forest ecosystems.
