Description
Funnels are a fascinating group that often appear in woodland areas, forming clusters or fairy rings. Many species have a distinctive funnel-shaped cap and can produce strong, pleasant fragrances. They play a vital ecological role by decomposing organic matter and recycling nutrients. One remarkable feature of funnels is their ability to thrive in various climates, making them adaptable to a wide range of environmental conditions.
