Those mushrooms look crazy, I wish they grew over here.
And as the walls come down and as I look in your eyes
My fear begins to fade recalling all of the times
I have died and will die.
It's all right.
I dont mind
I dont mind.

I've found them growing in some of my columnar pots and I've had mushrooms appear in some overwatered plant's pots. :lol: Not recently though mind you. :wink:

You've answered a couple of my posts ... it is obvious at this point that you are quite knowledgeable. Thanks everso for your time. You've put my mind at rest. I was truly afraid they MIGHT have infested something else and that the "eggs" would have hatched into something noxious!
