Mushrooms in Bloom


The recent rains have created a moist mycological haven at Camp Ramshackle. Pictured are a few specimens from a recent foray into our yard.


I am not certain what kind of mushrooms any of these are. This weekend is the perfect time to find out. Sunday, February 14th, the Los Angeles Mycological Society is hosting the 26th Annual Los Angeles Mushroom Fair at the LA County Arboretum and Botanical Garden.


The Los Angeles Mycological Society is hosting a foray this morning 9AM-1PM in El Cariso"Big Woods" to collect specimens for the fair.

    I was most interested in the ones in the top picture. I've never seen a fungus that looked like that. They remind me of the succulent called 'Hens and Chicks'.
