If only we were going to get Spring and Summer all over again

I discovered today my Harebells are still putting out blooms.

This wonderful fungus has been growing in my garden for about a week and it comes with a wonderful name
The Shaggy Parasol Mushroom

Apparently it is edible and strongly flavoured. Mrs JS immediately ruled herself out of the feast as she doesn't trust my ID.

The SP mushrooms are now fully open. I've had a measure across the top of the cap and it is 7 inches.
