Fairy umbrellas

As the rainy season arrives, we enjoy the ephemeral appearance of mushrooms on the green grass, (in this case; Axonopus compressus)
it brings back childhood memories, gardening with parents, telling us that they are umbrella for small animals (and garden fairies).

Thanks for sharing this banner with us. As children we had similar stories from parents & others. Brings back memories. Thumbs up

Love that you called them Fairy Umbrellas. Conjures childhood and magic. Wonderful.
