| | | Unknown garden fungi Who needs to go to Clumber Park to go on a fungi foray
I found this in our back garden in our grass while cutting the lawn
Cap approx 20mm
Didn't really have any smell
Appeared to be growing in the grass not on wood
Nearest trees would be our conifer hedge
Soil will be alkaline
Can anybody confirm that this is an ultra rare species (alright really common then  )
Was hoping to let them grow but unfortuantely our puppy had other ideas and trampled them |
