They taste good. I only ate a little to make sure that I'm not sensitive to them.

You're braver (or possibly more foolish?) than I am. I simply don't
know enough to make sure that I would not be harvesting toxic mushrooms.

Yeah, I've got those all over my backyard in little groups of them:

Yeah, I would not eat them either, unlike the morels that were in
Bryan and his wife's back yard years ago!! Those were delicious!! :-)

I saw a big, ugly fungus growing from the wall a couple of years ago,
in stairs down to the alley, and only after the fact did I figure it
was almost certainly a morel and probably worth at least $100.
There's a huge pine tree in the courtyard, and this probably sprung
from one of its wandering roots.

If another one appears, well, we'll see!

We know they don't need "much room"....

--- news://freenews.netfront.net/ - complaints: ---

Around here, prime mushroom country when the weather cooperates, morels are
most likely found among fallen oak trees or around oak roots...can't imagine they
would also be found around pine trees.....

Dude, join a fungi club. (You're a fun guy, right?) The mushrooms that
spring up on your lawn might be poisonous, so call someone experienced over.

I feel fine, and the ringless honey mushroom has enough unique characteristics
that I was sure of the species, but some folks are a little sensitive to them. I apparently tolerate them well.

I strongly suggest you use restraint with how much you consume, many
mushrooms closely resemble others, you may not have what you think you
have. Check he

Make sure and report back! Diarrhea? Gastric distress? Bet you won't!

The fungus in my yard are toadstools, and come from rotting
left-over roots of a tulip poplar that I had removed after lightning damage.

They are good for certain craft projects, but that's about all. Never, ever,
would I eat any part of them.

I just this spring planted a tulip poplar, consider it a replacement.
Mine is barely a sapling, only about 1" caliper and perhaps 8' tall.
They are supposed to flower but I may have to wait a few years.

What kind of crafts with toadstools?
This time of year I get lots of giant puffballs, supposedly good
eating but I've not tried any. I see a huge brownish one way out in
my yard that only just appeared but I'm too lazy to walk out there now
to get a picture, maybe tomorrow. I got a picture with telephoto,
actually two puffballs, will probably double in size by tomorrow:
http://i62.tinypic.com/8wb9jo.jpg

Shel, I am a huge fan of tulip poplars...we are on ththe border between too cold temps
and just right temps. I have replaced two in the last 5-7 years. They are great shade
trees, as you know, fairly disease- and bug-free, live a long time, grow fast and can grow to
over 60 feet tall and 40 feet around.

They bloom after 7-10 years....just be patient. ;-)) I think the first of my replacements
will bloom next year, I hope.

Be generous with mulching the first few years, and regular fertilizer. It makes a big difference.

I think it should do well. I was suggested by the arborist at a local
nursery to replace an American Beech that was murdered by a carpenter
ant infestation, by the time I discovered the ants if was too late,
they had hollowed out the trunk so that one day it just fell over, it
snapped off about a foot above ground level, hollow as a sodaw straw.
The stump was in prtty good shapi but I decided to dig it out ratehr
than wait for shoots to appear and that was an all day job. The top
soil here is very deep, about six feet, and water is no problem, in
fact that spot is a bit on the wet side and that's why that tree was
suggested. It seems to be doing fine, even leafed out a bit which I
didn't expect until the coming spring. At the same time I replaced a
chestnut tree that some stag debarked so that it died, I spent another
day digging out that stump and replaced it with an October Glory red
maple. This time I fenced those trees. Everything grows well here if
the critters don't get to it... I can't fence out ants but I did treat
the soil around both trees with an ant insecticide... and I already
fertized both with those spikes I hammered into the ground.

Just make sure that your dog does not eat any wild mushroom growing in your yard. If in doubt, eat a nice sized portion just to make sure it's not going to attack your dog's liver.

Best to test the mushrooms on your neighbor's dog...you know...
the one that lunges at the fence when you walk by.

You take chances on yard 'rooms? Agh - I leave em for the squirrels.
