These brown and white false turkey tail fungi are presently growing on the cut off but very much alive trunk of our chestnut tree. They surprised me this Sunday morning while taking a stroll around the garden, and I thought they looked beautiful. The garden at present is very wet, but to my delight tender new growth is appearing everywhere.
real beauties!

Not as far as I know Helen, some have them down as toxic. Seems they are though, rubbery and not nutritious at all even though they are apparently used in Chinese medicine.
