Blue roundhead (Stropharia caerulea)

These are more photos sent to me by a friend. They're gorgeous, and one of the very few blue-ish fungi that grow in the UK (or worldwide, that I know of, though my knowledge is very localised!). This obviously makes them an easy spot, and gorgeous to observe.

FOTD #014 : verdigris agaric! (stropharia aeruginosa)

the verdigris agaric is a woodland mushroom in the family strophariaceae. this mushroom is common in the grassy areas of europe, asia (iran), & parts of north america !! it particularly favours wood-chip mulches in gardens, & parks.

the big question : can i bite it?? the edibility of this mushroom is debated, with some sources saying they are edible, & some calling them poisonous. for safety, do not consume them !!

s. aeruginosa description :

"the cap is convex, broadening, & becoming umbonate with age. it is from 2–8 cm in diameter. at first it is a vivid blue/green, & very glutinous (slimy), with a sprinkling of white veil remnants around the edge. the colour in the gluten fades, or is washed off as it matures, and it becomes yellow ocher, sometimes in patches, but mostly at the centre. finally, it will lose the blue-green coloration completely. the white stem is quite long & of uniform thickness. it has a fragile brown/black ring, & below this the stem is covered in fine white scales, or flakes. the gills are initially white, then clay-brown, & sometimes have a white edge. the spore print is brownish-purple, & the oval spores 7–10 x 5 μm."

[images : source, source & source] [fungus description : source]

"SO PRETTY?? definitely in my top 10.. maybe top 5 fave fungi?? they're so gorgeous. majestic. 10/10."

Perfect blue parasols

Faeries left their little parasols out after the rain! I found this intimate group of three lovely Mycena interrupta just off a fire trial not far from my home after a few days of rain. Of all the photos I’ve taken, these are my favourite fungi shots of all time, one in particular. The “in front of the scene” shot above, was taken with my phone, immediately after the image below was captured,…
