Did you know … that fungi can no longer be considered as native plants?

Our summer newsletter reported that, following last year’s annual photography competition, mycologists were keen to let us know that fungi need to be classified in their own separate category! 

This is because  because fungi are in a scientifically recognised kingdom in its own right (i.e. not animals, nor plants).

You can learn more about fungi at our members’ Cottage Talk on Thursday 15 February when respected mycology expert, Dr Diana Leeman, will provide a presentation called: Funghi and its Place in the Scheme of Things.

The talk will run from 10am until around midday at the Cottage.
