The blusher

Amanita rubescens

Description:

I think this is the blusher (Amanita rubescens) but I'm not 100% since if there was a 'blush' then it wasn't very strong

That's clearly a Blusher. You can easily see that red stain in the first picture. And I have heard that Amanita rubescens always has those red stains at the base of the stem.

Hi! It's quite common the Blusher doesn't blush as much as you'd think. So yes! This is the Blusher.
