A conqueror of fields, gardens and mushrooms?

14 Dec 2025 1 minute read 2 comments madventure

Yesterday, while walking in the woods, I decided to return to a mushroom site I observed about three weeks ago. This is a tree mushroom called the Northern Sponge Mushroom (Climacocystis borealis). Generally, I had no particular goal, just sim...

"kiss-me-on-the-mountain", plant with a native of the Himalayas - Beautiful, invasive, healing

13 Dec 2025 1 minute read 2 comments madventure

This beautiful plant is more and more often found in Europe, although this is not its home place. She came, or rather we brought it from the western part of the Himalayas. I write, because the plant did not come. The perpetrator is, of course,...

It's neither winter nor autumn—it's simply November

I covered quite a few kilometers today, but without much enthusiasm. It was cold and gray. The lack of sun was really depressing. The birds have been fed. Today, the birds are dominated by tits and sparrows, who fight with each other for sunf...

Beautiful mushrooms of the autumn season - Pine coral mushroom (Phaeoclavulina eumorpha)

11 Dec 2025 1 minute read 1 comment madventure

The world of coral fungi is very extensive and it is difficult to clearly determine what species of fungus it is without thorough research. To determine what kind of mushroom this is, in the case of species very similar to each other, one should pa...

An off-the-beaten-track walk with unusual mushroom surprises

  I must admit that after today's walk in Silesian Park, I was a bit shocked, thanks to a certain type of mushroom. But first things first. I set out for my walk, as usual, well before noon, and of course, I changed my route when I saw the number o...

Finally some sun appeared

The weather is closer to winter, with the temperature only hovering around 5 degrees Celsius, but the sun came out today and stayed out until the evening. This has a positive effect on my mood, even though I had to talk to a few idiots today. Be...

More beautiful and strange flowers in the park garden

8 Dec 2025 1 minute read 1 comment madventure

Anemone scabiosa In today's post, I'll describe a few more plants from the secret garden, because contrary to appearances, their number is increasing rather than decreasing over time. As autumn approaches, more interesting plant species can be o...

A delicate and beautiful tree mushroom - the Variable oysterling

7 Dec 2025 1 minute read 2 comments madventure

Another rain-loving mushroom, strongly dependent on water. This one is airy, delicate, and beautiful. This is an arboreal species called the Cistus variegatus, which appears only in humid, rainy weather. At first glance it looks a bit like an...

6 Dec 2025 1 minute read 0 comments madventure

  I noticed this beautiful plant in the park garden for the first time. Perhaps new plants are added each year to enrich the flora of this beautiful place. The Physalis inflata is an ornamental plant, but it is edible....

Deer shield, weak, short-lived but beautiful

5 Dec 2025 1 minute read 1 comment madventure

Another of those weak and short-lived mushrooms, doomed to rain. Without it, it would not exist. This mushroom can reach up to 15 cm in diameter. Its cap is initially hemispherical, but becomes flat with age. The mushroom is very delicate...
