What is this fab shroom?

11 years ago

Was on a walk tonight and spied this beauty. Growing on north side of a garage on a berm of weeds. Might have once been a pile of yard debris.

Isn't he beautiful?! Can anyone identify please?

Lol, thanks ;-) It was certainly a looker!

Afterwards I planted it in my shade garden in hopes of some spore-spreadin', though I'm not sure the conditions are quite the same...

Can anyone confirm or deny my ID of Chlorophyllum rhacodes/Lepiota rhacodes? Sure looks like it, what with that cap pattern.

Some images online look as if the cap is smaller and closer to the stem...assuming it stretches out and gets horizontally broader (like mine) when mature??
