Previous to this find, the largest organism was an underground fungus in Oregon and prior to that it was an Aspen forest in (I believe) Colorado.

I suspect a bit of fuzzy defining going on with the word "largest" ...most bulk (possibly aspens), most elongated (the sea grass), covering most area (the Honey Mushroom) , and you've got three different largests
