Wrinkled peach fungus, with its delicate colour, used to be very rare. It grew on dead elms, so when the Dutch elm disease struck, this fungus became much commoner.Now the elms killed in that outbreak have decayed away, the fungus is once again rare, perhaps even rarer that before. So it was a pleasure to come across these in Himley Plantation: one fruiting body on a fallen trunk, the other nearby on a detatched section of branch.
