Found in ornamental garden.

Growing directly from the soil in a beech wood. The 'scales' rub off very easily. They are ure white inside, and don't stain.

Thanks 😊

I took the pictures of this as I found it - I didn't disturb it.

I'm not planning to take it but just curious on what it is

Every year I get a flush of oyster mushroom in my backyard. Slugs get most of them but I decided to act fast on this clump. Quit while I’m ahead so to speak. Not very sure what I’ll make but there are still clumps of baby mushrooms developing so I might get more.

Pic 3 Turkey tail

All around and the stump of a tree long since cut down in South Shropshire UK

Any help appreciated.

Stupidly picked some too early wgen I wasn't going to have access to anything to cook them for 2 days.

If I refrigerate them now just after picking will they be ok in 3 days?

Young buns not old.

King 👑 Boletus , delicious fried in butter with a bit of garlic

First time finding a suspected Hen of the woods. It a big one!

Doesn't stain black, has fine pores.

Anything I'm missing?

Can't figure out what are they.

Found on its own, close to a lot of turkey tail.
Plenty of beech wood around.

Improvised foraging basket

Most of them went off or dried up but still got enough plump ones to make half a jar of sloe vodka. 🤣😅

I wasn't foraging it was at the side of the road as I was walking along. Thanks

I keep seeing people still find loads up north, but down south where I am, it feels like there's only a few old ones everyone missed. They are massive though!

Great morning foraging in the East Midlands with a few mates today, Plenty of Penny buns, Scarletina boletes, a pine bolete, and some saffron milkcaps

BBC good food recipe minus 50g sugar. ☺️

Seen seeing people say the Boletes are finally out in the South West, I've not had much luck with them this year so far down in Cornwall, so I thought I'd go out to one of my better spots for penny buns this morning, saw a few in the hedge bank on the way but they're old, soggy and eaten, when I finally got to my main spot thoughthere was nothing but, this beauty Cauli was there, so not at all a wasted trip. Took just shy of a kilo head and left the smaller ones in situ.

Still not finding any porcinis in my regular spots but I'm finding plenty serendipitously in other places!

Today's morning walk and a reishi from the tunnel
