Mushrooms

• Mushrooms, or toadstools, are the flashy fruits of soil fungi. They most often grow where there is a significant source of organic material on which to feed, such as roots, tree stumps or forgotten wooden boards left on the lawn. Their colors are wide-ranging, depending on the species, and include white, purple, orange and brown.
