Description
This group, sweet knot, is known for its large, distinctive fruiting bodies that resemble gnarled, twisted knots, found on dead or decaying wood in forests. They possess a strikingly hard and woody texture, making them easy to spot in nature. Unlike many fungi, sweet knot decomposes wood slowly, playing a crucial role in the nutrient cycle of woodland ecosystems. These fungi are fascinating to mushroom hunters for their unique appearance and vital ecological role.
