Eric...forgot to mention, I was in the back yard and my daughter found a Morel Mushroom! My neighbor has an Elm Tree and Morels like to grow on the roots of Dying Elm Trees. (They feed on carbohydrates exuded from the roots.)

I cut the mushroom off and replanted the stem with the Hyphae back in the ground by a root.

Last year we found a small patch of morels growing near a dying tree, probably an elm, but I’m not sure. Will they grow back in the same spot this year? I keep looking but so far haven’t seen anything popping up. We may have had too dry a Spring.
