Description
Hemitomes congestum
Sometimes Hemitomes congestum is rose rather than pink in color. It grows in the leaf litter of conifer forests from central California to Washington. The redwood belt in California is a good place to look for it, but it probably grows on fungi in the leaf litter not of redwoods, but of conifers that grow with the redwoods.
