    White coral fungus, it looks like, but that means some dead wood under the grass.  I could easily be wrong.  However, it won't do any harm. Just another of nature's little miracles.

    Got me interested now!  Look up ramariopsis biformis, which is rarely recorded, but fits the bill.  It'll be one of the group of club, spindle and coral fungi.

    Wouldn't it be wonderful if you could 'garden fungi' - a whole garden dedicated to the myriad of fascinating and beautiful fungi, toadstools etc - how beautiful would that be image

    But they're so particular in their requirements image

    Thanks for the help guys....I'm off to purchase some autumn feed so we will see what that does to it.

    Glad to know it's nothing to worry about, just looks a little unsightly!!

    Thanks again, Stu

    Took this photo 2 weeks ago. It is growing on a piece of willow. Fascinating stuff.
