I love the way you explain throughly and cover every single feature, no side tracking no ads no bs just straight facts.. I have 30 parasols growing on my front yard 😅

This really helped me identify the parasol mushrooms out the gate of the apartments I live at!

The way you explain all of this is fascinating, truly. I’m not sure how I ended up here, but I’m happy I did.

Man I thought I had a honey hole....turns out there green gilled.....thanks for the knowledge! Did find 100lbs of puffballs yesterday and turned all my friends on to themselves! so when I saw the "parasols" I thought heck yeah! But...heck no. Lol

Nice in-depth explanation of the differences. I've heard the stems be described as scaly, snakeskin etc, but stretchmarks makes it much more clear what we're looking for. I've had parasol mushrooms that had very little scaly stem that I left behind because I thought it was supposed to be more pronounced. Also my new guide covers 1000 species but failed to include the false parasol, which makes me instantly weary of the rest of its reliability. But doing a bit more research now it turns out that the false parasol has not been spotted in the Netherlands yet, so that's why it's not included. Which does make sense. The white or green spores are the biggest identifyable feature in this case, so thanks!

Uhhhh... My previous comment I was still in the middle of watching your video. When you said that you put the emphasis on the wrong syllable I about fell out of my chair. I cannot believe you said that I'm headed in the right direction and that I am becoming the person that I want to be. I just I cannot believe you and said that. I literally was talking about this the other day about how a choir teacher when I was a kid said that and it just stayed with me my entire life and I thought it was funny because I was like you know it's so random how people can say things to you that they think are so random and they just stick with you your entire life you know. I have not heard anyone say that since I was a kid. I've been asking for signs from Spirit and stuff and trying to find my path as far as like hobbies and relationships and all this kind of stuff. I just really appreciate you being who you are and putting it online. Thank you.

Fantastic work.

I've been looking for a video on that mushroom for two days. Thank you.

I had a suspicious feeling you would post a video just like this one lol great video Anna! Magnificent and packed with useful information, as usual!

I've been enjoying mushroom identification lately. I saw a mushroom in my neighbors' yard that looked like a Parasol mushroom but You taking each variety and holding them next to each other side by side so that you can really observe the differences in the cap shape and everything was extremely helpful!! Thank you!

Your videos are so good. Love the amount of detail you go into using terms everyone can understand 😊 learning a lot, thank you!

I have watched several of your videos now and they are all just great. I am a relative newbee so I have been sticking with Hen of the Woods, Puff Balls, Blue Milk Caps, and others that are very easy to ID. Your video on the Caesar mushroom and now this one are giving me the detailed information I need to take the next step. Thanks for posting.

Fantastic video! Keep it up!!

This was super helpful ! Thank you ! I found 2 of these in my yard the other day , & I have yet to really examine them . ✌️🌼

Hi Anna, Just found your video when identifying a bunch of parasols in Rahway NJ Aug 3rd, 2023. You are a great help and topped off my knowledge of this species. This is my first "ramping up" of knowledge. I also read on Google that to confirm the species rest the gill over black paper and spores should drop in 3 hrs or so in the color of white to tan, and green means it's mean :) Love you help and you are the second subscribe button I ever hit. Thank you for your great informative videos, im looking forward to getting to know more! PS: I have read the stems are to tuff to enjoy but ground down make great cooking stock any inout on this is appreciated.

Very helpful and entertaining! 😊👍

Supremely helpful! Thank you!!

Great video!!!

Such a fantastic video. A mushroom grew in my garden.. and i was identifying which one it is. Thanks for telling in such a amazing way.❤

I'm quite new to mushrooms and everything, and for now I'm sticking to research so that I don't accidentally poison myself or anyone around me, and this video really helped. I heard that the chlorophyllum molybdites is a very common mushroom to find and mistaken as edible- or as its look alike, macrolepiota procera, and I feel more confident in being able to differenciate those two now. Thanks!

I loved this video, thank you, Anna. I'm in Australia and haven't seen real parasol mushrooms anywhere but we suddenly had an army of False Parasol mushrooms with no idea why or where they came from. It definitely was identifiable by the clearly greenish tint to its gills and then stalk.. I'm subscribing.. your descriptions are wonderful, thank you :)

Ty. They're in my backyard here in tx. Im excited

Thanks , great info, found the green spored Parasol mushroom all the way down in Miami Florida

You are so fun! I love your videos.

We have 6 parasol mushrooms growing outside of our front gate out of a tree stump.First time we have seen these in 12 yrs of living here,even the neighbors noticed them.They seemed to have popped up almost overnight,thinking about pulling them up and eating them.Thank you

Even if all mushrooms were edible and even choice edible and we wouldn’t have to study them out of fear of getting poisoned, your videos would still be just as awesome

Thank you for sharing ❤️

I have parasol mushrooms growing in my greenhouse, South isl, New Zealand. Wasnt sure last year if they were edible. Warm autumn weather now. Pretty sure these are the edible Macrolepiota. Thank you for you really informative video.

Thanks for this video! Insta-subscribed!

Excellent video thank you the parasol is very delicious ours here in the UK have a peppery taste too ❤️

Awesome.

Thanks Anna! Just talking about this.

Thank you very much. They grow in England!

Thanks Anna!

Thank you I just found some

Thanks for your video, I used to pick mushrooms in Europe from an early age, after 20 years in Australia still very cautious what I find occasionally. I will have to wait for my mushrooms in the front of our house to mature to try to determine the risk and pleasure of eating- oh just dry roasted on the pan with a bit of salt and pepper!

Thank you

wow cool !

Thank you. Great explanation. I love your passion about mushrooms. I'm new to this interest. It sort of found me as mushrooms 🍄 keep popping up in my yard. I grow other edibles. Why not mushrooms?

I get a ton of these that pop up under my fruit trees. I always wondered what they were. I usually just run them over with the mower or step on them. I had no idea they were edible. They always come back. It's supposed to be a wet year this year so hopefully they do.

We call that one the shaggy parasol mushroom here in the uk. I made that mistake once and learned my lesson!

Ty

Hello. Thank you for this effort. It is greatly appreciated. We have found what could be Leucocoprinus ianthinus. Please tell me if it is edible

I found some puff mushrooms last year I think they are called. They were awesome. Would you know where I can buy the spores to grow my own by chance. They haven't come back this year.

TO CLOSE FOR COMFORT FOR ME TO TAKE A CHANCE BUT THANK YOU ANYWAY SWEETHEART. 👍

subbed

I have one or the other on my lawn. I slid my phone underneath it for a pic.. the color is both white and green.

I have a bunch of mushrooms in my yard right now and I think they're Macrolebiata but I'm scared and definitelynot confident in my assessment. Lol. What is your best recommendation for a resource for a new mushroom forager to use as a go to for identification?

I'm in Southwestern Pa. I forage a parasol that is more brown than cream colored, and not as tall. It grows with wood blewits. Do you know what parasol that may be?

I'm wondering how long it takes for white gills to turn grey/green on picked mushrooms?? The tops are 3.5" to 6.5" across. Tyia!!!

I think I found some shaggy mushrooms. I can't tell if they're the same as the ones in your video. They have dark brown flakes, it's mostly white, has pale gills, and when I cut the stem it blushed redish brown. Is this an edible shroom?

As I'm watching this I'm waiting on a spore print for a potential parasol/green parasol. The top looks more like a parasol and the gills are light but in some lighting has maybe the slightest bit of green tint. So I'm not trusting anything but a spore print! Do you have any advice about a spit test for these mushrooms?

I have one that looks like that but it stretched out flat and the edges look spikey.

I found both next to each other

These have started growing in my yard as of last year. Are these harmful to cats, dogs, chickens or ducks? Thank you in advance.

Plenty of Green Spored Parasols here in Metro Atlanta.

So if they're pinkish, they're good to eat?

I just found like... A LOT of these mushrooms close to the beach in Denmark. Like in high grass but sandy earth. I mean the ones we found were a lot bigger than those shown in this video and boy, we could fill bag after bag with these guys. HOWEVER I know nothing about mushrooms and apparently there's a lot of lookalikes in our area and some should be deadly, so I don't have the guts to eat them. I rather stay safe but the thought of *maybe* having tons of these growing close by without anyone to pick them up haunts me.

I found one in front of my house this morning😂😂

Question. I found near my home a mushroom that looks EXACTLY like the safe edible kind on top, but the gills is the dark green. I'm having trouble telling if it's safe or not for this reason. What do you suggest

Thanks, we almost ate the wrong one!

Essentially to take the symbolic comprehensive view a bit further…, the creatures whose mode which were subdivided by their maintaining “purity”according to that mode of physiology/transportation … It was theirs that symbolically resembled God‘s ordaining Israel to keep separate by maintaining their purity

🦔

Wait, are toxic ones the green spores or the pale ones?

First🤪☝️

What is macrolepiota? Isn’t it chrolophyllum

Youre so knowledgeable ❤

ƤＲＯ𝓂Ｏ𝕤ᗰ 🎉

can you please talk less so we won't get poisoned next time
