That’s not all 👉 what we see as a mushroom is just the fruiting body. The main part of the fungus, called mycelium, is a network of thread-like structures that grow underground or within their food source. Mycelium can extend for miles and can be hundreds or even thousands of years old. Sometimes called the “Wood Wide Web,” mycelium allows trees and plants to send signals and even nutrients to each other. The largest known living organism on Earth is a honey fungus (Armillaria ostoyae) in Orego
