Lucky me! Somehow I ended up getting some morel mushrooms in one of the moist sandy spots in the garden near my manzanita (Arctostaphylos peninsularis). I think they're common (or white) morels (Morchella esculenta). I wonder how they got there....I'd love to know how to keep them coming back and how to grow even more!
For identification and confirmation that this morel isn't poisonous - thanks to:

Wow!!! I hope they keep coming back! Be kind to your mycelium!
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised Bob let you post these pictures... he seemed pretty protective of your mushrooms on Friday.
