| | | Possible Boletus edulis? I found this mushroom today in the park on grass near some trees. I think it is Boletus edulis. Can someone please confirm this, thanks. |

| | Re: Possible Boletus edulis? Yes this is Boletus edulis. The shape of the cap and stem also the colour and texture of the cap are spot on, and you can just make out the raised white net pattern at the top of the stipe.
