When somebody says they have giant mushrooms in their garden and I ask
if it isn't a little early for them, the common name does matter. It
doesn't matter whether they are edible or not, because we know that
they are, OP said her husband ate them.
There are a very limited number of edible fungi referred to as
mushrooms.

Todays Western Daily Press magazine, West Country Life contains a
article by Chris Rundle, he writes that St.George has delivered his
usual crop of mushrooms,indeed he has.
