Found growing while I was harvesting persimmons (it is Southern Indiana here!), growing in my lawn/grass, near the drip line of both Cherry and Persimmon tree. It sprinkled rain all day yesterday, and today started overcast and wet, then went to sunny around 10:00hrs. I found it when still overcast around 07:15hrs. I’ve hunted for morels many many times, pulling in grocery bags overflowing every morning in the SPRING... Wasn’t aware they might grow in late fall... We have already had 3 snows here; but nothing major.. When hunting morels in the spring, we call these a “Preacher’s Prick”. A few things to note: 1. It smells VERY STRONG like a morel. 2. It is the common size and shape(s) of the kind of morels we refer to as Preacher’s Pricks. 3. The size is: 4.5" long x 1.25" wide at maximum width of cap, 0.75" wide at maximum width of stem. Cap is appx. 1.75" long, and stem is appx. 3" long from end of cap. Stem grows up under cap, where it attaches almost near top of cap. 4. One thing weird about it, is that the mushroom has very little color at all. Different... In the photo, one side (away side) has very briefly been sprayed with clean water, and when done, the brown "goo" in the pockets of the cap washed away, leaving just white empty pockets. The other side of the cap (facing front) has not been washed, nor any other part of shroom, and contains the brown goo. I've never seen this before. * So what is it officially??? And is it edible (tasty) ? I've NEVER EVER seen a morel in a yard before, especially mine. More detailed photos available. Please help ASAP! Want to know answer to this very very much!!! Thanks!!
