Seiser Alm Nature: Mushrooms are omnipresent and yet we must go in search of them. This is because they almost all grow hidden in the soil - as a finely branched network. 🍄What shows itself to us on the surface are only the spore-forming fruiting bodies. Mushrooms are of great importance for the natural balance: they decompose dead organic material and thus provide nutrients for trees and other plants. 🌳🎋 They are also indispensable symbiotic partners of plants. Most of our trees form a symbiotic community with mushrooms. They provide the trees with water and nutrients, such as nitrogen and sulphur. In return, they receive sugar, carbon, proteins and vitamins. 🍄🌲🌿 —— #seiseralm #alpedisiusi #livingthedolomites #loveseiseralm —— #seiseralmnature #nature #funghi #pilze #mushrooms #wald #bosco #natur #nature #südtirol #altoadige
