Good find. Lemmy really needs a good backpacking community, a shame they're all reddit reposts with no discussion.

I tend to post a lot of pictures taken while hiking. Also flowers and whatnot. I really only do day hikes though, back and hip can’t handle the ground like it used to.

That a plant or a fungus???

It is considered a plant.

Interestingly they are non chlorophyll plants that feed off certain fungi.

Such an amazing plant. I would keep it as a houseplant if it weren’t impossible

I found an ecosite once, that had them everywhere. Like it was hard not to step on them.
