Kevin Hoover Posted November 3, 2019 Report Share Posted November 3, 2019 For example, can an individual hemlock tree have a mycorrhizal relationship with both Hydnum umbilicatum and Lactarius subpurpureus at the same time? Maybe on different roots? Just wondering if I should bother looking for Wine Red milkies under hemlocks where I already found hedgehogs under. I realize I won’t find them until August, but I’m trying to plan ahead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vitog Posted November 4, 2019 Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 Yes, some trees can have multiple mycorrhizal fungi associated with them simultaneously . Douglas-fir is well known for multiple associations. I don't know about hemlock, but it's likely to be similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
