Are you just yanking our chain or are you really interested in the plant kingdom?
I am not a botanist
I wish I had the knowledge to be one
I am a simple grower of crops and we can't grow or sell those fungi here! LOL

ajtgirl: every year since I was 8 I have had a herb garden...learned from mr.cannon..who ran the pioneer herb garden at pioneer village in toronto.amateur botanist since before the south fell.I do find the unusual members of the botanic world interesting to learn about..not that I suggest we grow them...just trying to expand your green horizons a little.
