Discover the wonder of fungi and the vital role they play in your garden with expert guidance from the RHS.
Did you know that the world's largest living organism is a fungus? Or that without fungi we would disappear under a mountain of dead leaves?
Fungi are all around us, including in our gardens. From the vast mycorrhizal networks in the soil to the array of mushrooms that pop up overnight and the less welcome varieties that appear on our plants, we live surrounded by this fascinating, often hidden world.
Beautifully illustrated, RHS Fungi for Gardeners is packed with information on how to identify fungi, why fungi are key to a healthy garden, and projects for growing your own mushrooms to eat or just enjoy!
