Blue mushroom on shrub stem
Q: This shrub has discolored leaves and something is growing on the wood part of the shrub. I don’t know what it is. How to get rid of it?
A: It is just the mushroom from a fungus of some sort that’s decomposing a dead stem. Mushrooms are the outward sign of a fungus. The fungus did not kill the stem… it was dead beforehand.
