  1. Cool! I've always wanted to find mushrooms growing on pinecones. Posted 6 years ago
    1. Yes, to me, quite a find. I will have to search out to see if there are some similar mushrooms attached to our local Pinus contortus. Posted 6 years ago

Strobilurus trullisatus is one of relatively small number of mushrooms in our area that live on conifer cones. It is recognized by a pale-colored cap with pinkish tones, and a yellowish-brown stipe base.
