New Orleans

I found this mushroom in my front garden. It looks larger then it really is, being that it is only 1.25 inches across.


other sizes: small medium large original auto

It would be nice to have a look from the top and the from the growing place to give a closer opinion on this one. Those clear powder chocolate blades are typical for Inocybe species.

This is one species of the inocybe group. They grow in symbiose with trees. They have different smells which can be bitter flour, fruity like apples juice or simply spermatic.
All Inocybe species are poisonous and to avoid. When they get older, their hats split on the edges and the hat looks then more like cut in large fringes.
