First gilled mushroom in Shrewsbury MA
6/13/09
Yellow Blusher - Amanita flavorubescens

A young one with about 1.25" cap.  Growing on the lawn near an Oak.

Here is one that popped out the next day.

One that is a bit older with about 2.5" cap.

Side view of the one above, showing base of stem and leftovers of a yellow volva.


This shows the partial veil detaching from the cap edge and will form the floppy ring around the stem.
