A mushroom that looks just like a tiny tree!
Meet Dendrosphaera eberhardtii, a rare fungus from the Trichocomaceae family. It grows in the tropical forests of Southeast Asia — from Indonesia all the way to Okinawa.
What looks like a “trunk” is actually the stroma — a thick bundle of fungal threads — and it can reach up to 17 cm tall! At the top, it branches out like a miniature tree, and each “branch” ends with a bright yellow fruiting body.
Nature’s craftsmanship at its finest!
