I moved it and something took the little blooms off that were just about to open...grrr! I've got to get some sand so I can repot it the way it is happiest and then I'll do my best.

But Mandy I think they are mushrooms too. The flowers are suppose to be yellow to light cream yellow. They pitcher plant is awesome and I would love a plumeria plat. Even though I kill most regular plants. Can't wait to see all the plumeria flowers when I am in Maui!Candice Suter.....Sweetstuffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03439964856042558664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3561028386849796907.post-7279788976964041532010-08-07T10:15:17.531-05:002010-08-07T10:15:17.531-05:00Not to totally freak you out on how exuberant I go...Not to totally freak you out on how exuberant I got over this...here is a great 2 pages of photos!

You can see it here: <a href="http://collectivesource.com/fungi/newpages/Coprinus_plicatilis.htmlfound" rel="nofollow">HERE</a>. It is seen a lot in lawns and probably the spores were picked up in the wind and blew to your pot! You might find them in your lawn after a lot of water...and you have to really watch, because they only last like 12 hours or less! How fun! Thanks for posting...you can find a few photos of them on Google, but good photos are hard to come by. If you feel inclined, you might want to submit it to one of the mushroom ID sites online...this is a fantastic find!!!! Great photo!!!!Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04402220963886597754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3561028386849796907.post-25470777426626098062010-08-07T07:46:28.213-05:002010-08-07T07:46:28.213-05:00Hey Mandy...looking closely at your Senecio Hawort...Hey Mandy...looking closely at your Senecio Haworthii, it looks like those "blooms" are coming straight out of the dirt, and my first thought when I saw them was that they were mushrooms. They have a classic look, and when you said they only lasted a day, it tipped me off to look closer at the pic. I am looking around on mushroom sites to ID, and I know I have seen some before that looked very thin, and if they were not the same, they were very close. They can be decieving! I will let you know if I can find anything. The ones here were growing out of the dead trunk area at my Moms house! They were so beautiful, I just stood and stared at them forever!!! They also only lasted one day...they are very fragile!!! The stems are identical also. I am fascinated by mushrooms and fungus! They are the coolest things ever!!! Possibly even cooler than succulents! LOLOL! :)<br />Glad you and your Mom got some time together! That half price books store sounds awesome...I wish I had one!!!!!<br />Have a fun rest of the summer with your girls! We have tax free days coming up on August 13-15, which will be nice!!!Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04402220963886597754noreply@blogger.com
