Nice find Beam, now go and find us some spores so we can grow them. :nana:

Groovy, Beam! Definitely let us know if you find a source for spores for a bioluminescent mushroom.

Years ago I was hanging out with my friends and we were looking to start up a bonfire. So we went into the edge of the woods to collect wood. I came across a rotting tree, so I tore it out of the ground. When I looked at the base of the stump that was ripped from the Earth I noticed it was glowing purple! Faintly, but it was glowing. So add purple glowing fungus to your list, but the green mushrooms maybe brighter. I only wish I had a camera and took a long exposure of the purple glowing fungi.

WOW ... how cool is that !!

And they also come in purple
Really amazing.

I prefer a warmer tint.

..perhaps something of this hue would be more to your liking?

(actually the spider's fluorescing not luminating)

Honey! Don't forget to feed my flashlights while I'm at work!

I see therapy in some of your futures.

Beam, if you get a hold of some let us know how they taste! :naughty:
