Fungi don't have leaves or roots and are not producers. They don't photosynthesize, and they have cell walls made out of chitin. Plants have cellulose, pectin, and hemicellulose in their cell walls. Thus Fungi don't make their own food and they lack chlorophyll.

Most plants are autotrophs, though a few are heterotrophs. Some heterotrophic plants actually rely upon fungi to provide their nutrition via the roots. Fungi are heterotrophic and can function ecologically as saprobes, pathogens, parasites and mutualists (e.g. lichens and mycorrhizas). Many fungi produce thalli (bodies) composed of mycelium made up of hyphae, plants do not.

Your hydragea as a white dry fungie on the bark under leaves how do you stop this?

The white dry patches are probably lichens and they don't need to be controlled. Lichens on the trunks and branches of trees and shrubs are a common sight and normal. They are a cooperation between a fungus and algae and do no harm to the plants they grow on as they are epiphytes (air plants) and take nutrients from fallen debris and water runoff.

How did they find Fungie in Dingle in Ireland?

In 1984, Paddy Ferriter, the Dingle Harbour lighthouse keeper, first began watching a lone wild dolphin escort the town's fishing boats to and from port. By August of that year it was possible to officially record the dolphin as a "permanent" resident of the entrance channel. The dophin became known as Fungie, the name having been given to him by the fishermen.
