>Mycorrhizal fungi occur naturally in organic fertile soil.  The spores
>attach to plant roots to gather nutrients and water for the plant and create
>various antibiotics that fight plant diseases.  You can buy the dormant
>spores mixed with ground yucca root from various sources, under various
>names.  Gardens Alive! carries it.  Goggle "mycorrhizal fungi inoculant" to
>find other retail sources.
>
>I wrote an article on using the inoculant in the garden in 2005 in The
>American Gardener.  It won a Silver Trowel and detailed my 14 years of
>experimenting with the fungus.  If you are interested in reading the
>article, email me directly at gardendiva@charter.net , and I'll send you a
>PDF file of it.  Or contact David Ellis at The American Gardener for a back
>copy.  His email is dellis@ahs.org.
