| | | ID please Can anyone identify this fungi? (I'm a fungi novice!)
I found it in my garden on some decayed wood/leaf litter. It's approx 8 inches across and 5 inches from base, solid and quite heavy. Is it edible? It smells very 'mushroomy' |

| | | Re: ID please The name escapes me at the moment, but it's not edible, I'm afraid.
