      Lovely fungi Zigs. After watching "the secret life of trees" I'll never feel the same way about fungi again. I think your little fungi is the tip of a massive iceberg.

        My Snow Carpet rose this morning. Still in full leaf and with quite a few other clusters of buds and flowers. Pretty amazing for Christmas Eve! :spinning:

                              Nothing hiding in any corners here apart from me trying to get warm!

                              Indoors, Ceropegia woodii continues to bloom..................

                              The nearest thing to blooming outdoors (sort of) is something that is supposedly only hardy down to 10°c - Gibasis pellucida...............
                              [​IMG]Gibasis pellucida by longk48, on Flickr

                              It is a native of the West Indies and tropical South America. It has been in a huddle of plants up against the wall of the house except for a handful of nights when it was proper Arctic when I shoved it in the garage.
