Subject: Another one of Nabooko’s tall tales
If I were a toad (and some may think I am) I would love to have discovered it in my garden- Well in fact I did discover it in my Chatham garden! One afternoon it wasn’t there- early the next morning it was- The tallest mushroom/toadstool I have ever seen – Standing all alone, pristine in the cool morning air- almost startling- since there were no others around it to be seen.
It stands ten and one fourth inches high – There might have been taller ones somewhere at some time, but I am guessing that they had much thicker stems. The stem on this is very slender.
I have pictured it with a two gallon plant container to give an idea of the size.
