Welcome back Don! Hurray!
Rural Ireland is substantially peat bog but I don't know anything about its
fungal pathogens but how about its spores? Bracken is nasty I'm told,
ticks, Lime Disease.
Cheers

Subject: Harmful Fungus in Sphagnum Moss?
| In my few years of growing aroids I have periodically heard stories about
a harmful
| (to humans) fungus that grows and reproduces itself in ground or otherwise
virgin
| sphagnum. Has anyone else heard these stories or seen written information
on
| the subject?
