gardening

There is some good advice here anneey

I don't have any experience of Honey Fungus I'm glad to say. Hope you manage to get it sorted.

When the tree is gone, have a bonfire on the spot. That should kill off lots of the spores. It really depends on how close other trees and shrubs are, you will have to keep an eye on them.

Be very careful what you plant in it's place. I'm afraid it will limit you - ask a good garden centre for advise.

I've just had a light bulb moment. We now have a hornbeam growing quite happily where honey fungus had developed, the tree is strong and healthy but the honeysuckle growing on the other side of the fence has suddenly died and gone brown in the last couple of weeks. It's only just dawned on me why!! [thick face]

Thank you merlotgran, I did google in for info on Honey Fungus, but yours was the best. ( very informative)

Thank you Nfk I shall give Hornbeam some serious thought. Sorry about your Honeysuckle. Gardening is such a pleasure, but also a Battle.
