White Mushroom: One large white mushroom, and seven, tiny, white mushrooms, were growing in my backyard. The cap of the large mushroom, was one and one half inches tall, and one and three fourths of an inch wide. The stem was one fourth of an inch wide, and five and one half inches long. The shape of the cap was ovate. The caps was just above the ground, on the seven, tiny, mushrooms. The caps were one eight of an inch wide, on the seven, tiny, mushrooms. The next morning, there were now, twelve mushrooms, growing in my backyard, and all in one spot. The top of the cap, was completely covered, with white and gray flakes. These flakes looked like glass. This large mushroom, had an odor to it. When I put the cap between two fingers, the cap felt rubbery. Underneath the cap, was the gills. The gills were striated, and in some areas, wavy. The gills were very close together. This large mushroom, had a ring on its stem. On the bottom of the stem, was the basal bulb. Kingdom: Fungi - Mushroom: a fungal growth that typically takes the form of a domed cap on a stalk, often with gills on the underside of the cap. Mushroom: any of the various fungi, that produce a fleshy fruiting body, especially one consisting of a stalk, with an umbrella-shaped cap.
Mushrooms grow on vegetable matter. They can grow on living trees, and even on other mushrooms, or on decaying trees, soil that is based on decayed trees or plants, or plant matter like straw, which is decomposed or digested. They live all over the place. On forest floors and on trees, or on fields or manure piles, in lawns and gardens, anywhere they can find nutrients and moisture. Woods and meadows, are the best places, to go hunting for fungi. Some mushrooms, prefer open, grassy places. Another group of fungi, grows on animal dung. Some fungi, are common in woodlands, because of all the rotting wood and leaf litter. Etc.
