I heard someone say to only harvest from live trees...maybe ask David himself...

Yes, I agree with DalePinnock. That is a Ganoderma applanatum. Just found 3 of these last week.

Hi Matt and Gela. What you found there is 'Ganoderma applanatum' - otherwise known as artsists bracket. I find them here in sunny Cambridge, UK quite often, and have an 18inch specimen in my office staring back at me as I type. It is the same family as reishi (ganoderma lucidum) and has similar chemistry and properties - just to a lesser extent. :o)

They do look like crop circles.. maybe you shall have some visitors :)
Angela is a truely inspiried ANASTASIA GODDESS !

Oooh okay. I stand corrected :)

Also I don't think I'd recommend eating mushrooms off of dead trees.
I heard (from Daniel Vitalis) that the health of a mushroom depends largely on the health of the tree its being hosted by.
