Actually there's something wrong with this one. Descriptions, sizes and reports don't match up even from the most reputable sites. I have a feeling there's 2 and some are being misidentified... ?
Pleasure gully.moy - hope I can find some more for you 8-)
Thank you for introducing me to this lovely little mushroom?
Thanks Debbie. These days, when I get down to look at something else is when I see them. Should wear my glasses I guess. :)
these are brilliant!! I'm amazed you even spotted them but I suppose the bright red helps :-)
Thanks Lauren. They were so small I didn't realise I was squashing them.
Neat spotting! They look like candy.
