Hello Folks! Fungi come in all sorts of shapes, sizes and colours. Whilst some are edible, others are poisonous and best avoided. They can be found almost everywhere and are often easily overlooked. Many can be seen in woodland and meadow, especially at this time of year.Each Monday for 12 weeks I will be posting a little teaser for you. Without looking in books or on the internet (i.e - no cheating), see if you can identify the UK fungus. On Wednesday, so as long as no-one has guessed it, I will post one clue. On Friday I will post the answer along with some additional information for your interest.MYSTERY FUNGI QUIZ #10Clue: a succulencies order lip root.
Usually MrsT, you save the anagram for the follow up clue.

I cheated and put it in an anagram solver and out popped the answer. However, I'm not going to blow my own trumpet.
Yes, please don't blow your trumpet otherwise folk will get wind of the answer.
Yep, got but had to cheat too by thumbing through pages of Fungi to find it LOL, why do I do it ? LOL !!!

If folk are blowing trumpets I wonder about Chanterelle.
Well somebody had to start with names and not hints,it might inspire someone to give a correct answer.
