| | | Re: Amanita for ID please? The Blusher - Amanita rubescens is notoriously variable in appearance but any hint of reddish colour, a broad ribbed ring and a tendency for the flesh to bruise pink are usually give away signs.

| | | Re: Amanita for ID please? I did have half an eye out for any Fly Agarics but nothing showing as yet, there were quite a few A.rubescens about but this one just seemed a bit different with it's colour.
Loads of A.fulva popping up, they seem to be everywhere!!! |
