Hericium abietis (Conifer Coral Hericium)

When I saw this, I thought it was a cauliflower mushroom (you can occasionally buy them at Granville Island), but looking at my books, I suspect it is Hericium abietis - National Resources Canada's view. hey, great photos! I'm planning on heading up to brandywine meadows this august '06. Went there ages ago... up to the alpine buy some route I can't remember. I think it's a nice little show case for friends coming from flat old Ontario! sarah Tuesday, July 25th, 2006 at 19:19:56 I find lots of these in the Pacific Northwest. I have always believed that they are called a" Boars Head Tooth" mushroom. I'm pretty sure that is what yours is! Cheers!!
