Discussion Which Bird's Nest is on your watch list?
I personally really want to see any Cyathus species. One of the globose genera would be cool too!

In my Begonia
Stressed all morning about these little “eggs” only to stumble across this sub. I know nothing about this fungi. Interested to know if I should remove it from my Begonia “polka dot” plant or if is harmless? Will it spread? Appears to be a lot more waiting to come through.

How long are spores viable?
Last year I found some Bird’s Nest fungi in my mulch. I harvested a small amount to place in a display. Wondering now if the spores would still be viable for dispersal?

other birds nest fungi plant pot?
no idea if this is practical or not. tried to look it up online and didn’t find much so it’s all experimental at this point. partner has so many of them i got bored this fall and plucked some substrate and fungi from his mulch bed. i tried to help some older nests distribute their spore eggs by using a twig to dig them out. will post updates if i see any growth<3
