Jeanne Koelling & I were weeding the other day and happened upon this gorgeous mushroom. Jeanne has some experience with mushroom identification and deduced that this is most likely "Lepiota rachodes" - commonly found in shade under trees and shrubs. The cap on this mushroom measured 9.5 inches! We found this one under the 25 year old ceonothus trees with the white blossoms at the top of the hill. Although, Lepiota rachodes is supposed to be edible, dogs are known to visit this tree so eating it would be gross! Anyway, its just beautiful to look it. Enjoy!
