Toadstools growing
 

I gave my front lawn a mow earlier today, and noticed in two places,
there was toad stools growing at the edges of the lawn.

I turned my front garden over earlier in the year and reseeded it all
after levelling and throwing in/on some sharp sand to aid drainage, as
it has previously suffered from large areas of moss growth.

So what is the cause of toadstools growing.....poor drainage in those
areas?? or what?

Thanks

The autumn, and rainfall.

Such fungi are ubiquitous, and mostly harmless in the garden.

Spores in the grass seed and a very wet 'summer', perhaps?

Toadstools (alias mushrooms) can pop-up anywhere. It's quite natural,
and just shows that there is good humus in the soil.
