- The largest organism in the world is a mushroom that is over 1,000 years old, covering hundreds of acres in a forest in Oregon USA. All plants on Earth relay on fungi to live, and fungi out number plants six to one. Kew has the largest collection of dried fungi in the world, around 1.25 million specimens.

Amazing insight, thank you heaps for your work!
Neat to learn about Kew’s huge fungi collection.
This video does a beautiful job of talking about the importance of research collections in a way that is so thoughtful! I'll never think about fungi in the same way. What a remarkable planet we live on.
This was an eye opener for me, thank you so much for sharing this.
Bravo! More please!
Fantastic video.
Makes me wonder what the impact of glyphosate is on the mycelium....
Go Oregon
How Kewt
I always wanted to study fungi but all I could afford was a camera, so I take pictures...
I thought it was pronounced as fung-gai hah my whole life is a lie
honestly i've heard it pronounced a myriad of ways. i like to pronounce it as fun-guy :)
Music credit to Helios' "Dragon Fly Across an Ancient Sky" please!
A beautiful film about a fascinating organism: Funghi, and the varied crew who study them at Kew. I thought I glimpsed some Psilocybe Semilanceata at 2:05, but on pausing and reading (I am not expert!), I think they are instead, some kind of Coprinus. A mistake I myself almost made once, although of course I was only interested in them for the purposes of "microscopy". Hehe.
Southern Illinois is blossoming with mushrooms I've never seen in my lifetime, thanks to Tropical Depression BILL! :-)
Fascinating, I enjoyed this video :)
