Field Notes

Description:

Growing under pine, Never seen any mushrooms like this, solid vase shaped with a spongy inside. The couple in the ground were quite soggy, one was detached and dry, it was very light. The holes I believe are from insects.

Habitat:

Nature sanctuary orchard

It's an old Puff-Ball. When they sporulate they burst open into this vase shape.
