One of the most precious mushroom species on this planet.

The elusive wrinkled peach mushroom (Rhodotus palmatus).

Wrinkled peach is the common name for an uncommon species, Rhodotus palmatus. Other common names include rosy vein cap or netted rhodotus. It's widely distributed, and grows all over the world- although actual fruitings are sparse. It is pretty rare to actually spot one.

With the decline of ash wood and elm trees throughout Europe and Britain, these majestic mushrooms are increasingly becoming rarer and more endangered.

If you're wondering, the red sap-like substance is called "guttation", which is basically the mushroom's way of purging excess water as it grows.
