Mushroom Mutitudes

 

2025: Mushrooms
A mushroom hunters delight, the Morel, excellent when cooked slowly.

From Malta, a cross thistle oyster mushroom or King Oyster, widely cultivated and native to the temperate humid areas of the Mediterranean.
2006: Mushrooms of Greenland II
Greenland Milk-cap Mushroom, I am assuming this species is edible to be included in the stamp issue, although many milk caps (Lactarius) are not.

 Definitely edible, a puffball, Calvatia cretacea, although in common with all puffballs  the interior has to be pure white otherwise it is past its edible stage.

I really enjoyed your stamps today! I love finding fungus and photographing them. I never eat them, not even those from the store. Don't like them at all.
