View Full Version : Taxman et al - what is this shroom? fox20thc 23-10-2006, 07:17 PM shroom (http://i58.photobucket.com/albums/g254/fox20thc/shroom.jpg) The kids wanted to take it home for tea (along with the chestnuts) but I said taxman isnt here but I will ask him what it is :hihi: evildrneil 23-10-2006, 07:27 PM Looks a bit like one of these??? http://www.rogersmushrooms.com/gallery/DisplayBlock~bid~6290.asp taxman 23-10-2006, 07:29 PM Looks like an Earthball to me. Hard to tell from photos alone but if it had tough leathery skin and no stem then Earthball it is. Would have caused gastric upset if eaten fox20thc 23-10-2006, 07:30 PM That sounds like what it was, no stem to speak of. Just goes to show I was right :cool: (about not picking it ;) ) purdyamos 27-12-2006, 10:03 PM Hard to tell from photos alone but if it had tough leathery skin and no stem... Would have caused gastric upset if eaten I know the correct anatomical name if you're interested. :hihi: |
