Pretty fungus among you. I have not seen anything this year. Might be too dry. Once the sun hits any fungus that pops through the soil, it gets fried. Sad because some of the fungus has beautiful shapes and colors.
I hate to be the first one to tell you this, but dry hot weather is not too good for us human mushrooms, either! Not looking forward the heatwave heading for Arizona.
My grandmother used to tell me that mushrooms grow where trees used to be. There were mushrooms growing along the driveway where she lived (most of her entire life) & she told me that when she was a little girl, there were trees growing there but they had been chopped down in her early adulthood. Now mushrooms popped up every spring, ghosts of the trees that used to be there. I always liked the idea that mushrooms where ghosts of former trees.

There is something about arid dryness and hot sun thatβs tough on shrooms and other fungi.

I lived for 5 years in Tucson and remember the heat! Be careful and try to stay cool.

What a marvelous and touching story. And such a tribute to your grandmother. I’ll look at mushrooms in a different light now! Thanks you for sharing.
