Phallus ravenelii |
Ravenel's Stinkhorn. Egg stage (1-1/4 inch wide) has pinkish coloration. |
About 6 inches (15cm) tall. Found mid-October growing from the ground in woods. Often found growing in urban settings; parks, gardens and mulch beds. |
If the egg stage of this fungus is collected it will often "hatch" at home (this will qualify you as a true mushroom geek). |
