Agaric auguste

Is it possible I've found one in my garden?

There are loads of mushrooms popping up everywhere here. Our garden has not been touched with anything of a chemical nature for many years, so it's becoming an ideal habitat I hope Smile

I'll go and take photos etc tomorrow.

It's late for those, mid you everything seems to be popping up late! Looking forward to seeing a pic or three x

You get A. augustus late some times, so could be.

In-fact I saw saw today so it's perfectly possible. However, there are some lookalikes. See if the cap and flesh bruise reddish. If it does then it's NOT A. auguste.
bingo

Anything can happen these days..........wouldn't suprise me too much if St Georges started popping up next week. Laughing

Every season someone says (in this forum) that it's a weird year for mushrooms. Is there ever a normal year?

You're looking at a few hundred species, in dozens of different habitats, with a vast number of environmental parameters that are in some cases dependent on each other and in others independent. So, no, there isn't any such thing as a year when a forager can't spot some anomalies Laughing
