They came up very crinkled up and opened as they got above the grass.

Looks a lot like Armillaria mellea, which is known to infest garry oaks (among a zillion or so other species!)

Sorry, but they really don't look like Armillaria mellea to me.

It is not a Honey Mushroom. May be Psilocybe, compare with https://gohiking.ca/plants/mushrooms/non-edible-mushrooms/bluing-psilocybe-mushroom/ Does it have a detachable skin over the cap?

Windberry, I apparently forgot to reply. I think that’s the closest guess yet. I didn’t examine for the identifying features you described but next time I’m there I will look.

Jay, that was quite the stream of consciousness. I’m not particularly interested in trying self identified recreational mushrooms... too dangerous. Milkweed is going well. We sell at the big annual plant sale and always sell several hundred which just covers our costs. Also, we have planted a several areas at educational gardens and Clean Water Services gave us a heads up that we could plant some of their areas soon too. We just had our second child this fall so I’m behind in all outdoor endeavors. Whenever you have extra variegata seeds, send them my way.

A member (Jeff) is selling them on ebay. 25 seeds for $14. I'd jump on it. Someone else was selling them 25 seeds for $640. It's the truth, ridicuous yes. I might be starting a new milkweed thread in the spring open to trading seeds and documenting the 33 or so species I'll be growing. I spent all year looking for seeds. Found a couple rare ones like Gomphocarpus cancellatus. These tropical African ones will be treated like annuals and I'll see if I can root and overwinter cuttings insude. Jump on those seeds. I didn't know you were still looking for them. I would have given you a heads up.

I just checked ebay. They're still there. He raised the price 1 dollar so it's 15 with shipping. Finding these seeds was a real ordeal for quite a while!

Windberry, do you know if that species of psilocybe shows bluish coloring when bruised? I know the cubensis turn blue.

I am not sure it is Psilocybe. I said may be Psilocybe. If Psylocibe than probably P. cyanescens. More info is needed for more reliable id. How the stipe looks like, how looks the underside, what colour is a spore print, how big are the mushrooms? Even when id seems accurate it does not mean the mushrooms are for sure safe to eat.

Here's a couple pics from the internet of Psilocybe cyanescens. Yes, they were from the internet. They were not from my yard. Sue me!

Try to get a good gill pick next time Mac. The edges of the tops on these are smoother with a lighter color. Maybe the appearance changes as it ages? All plants on Earth were given to us to use. Who on Earth has the authority to make any of them illegal? Where has it gotten us?

Milkweed Euphoria!

Milkweed Euphoria! . . . induced by psychedelic mushrooms!

I said I tried them once 10 years ago. I don't take them for recreation. It's spiritual. The laughter is an added bonus. I want to get closer to God since I'm heading that way! And yes I'm high on milkweeds of every kind. What you don't get windberry, because you've never embraced the subfamily Asclepiadoideae, what you don't understand is the joy and euphoric feeling you get when you finally find seeds or plants for one of the rare milkweeds you are looking for. In this case Asclepias variegata. And windberry, if you are going to be so critical and inquisitive about others, I suggest you turn on your private messaging so people can get to know you better and explain themseves for who they really are, not your distorted view of them!!!!!

Asclepias nivea. The Caribbean milkweed!
