The flowerpot mushroom is a saprophytic mushroom that appears to have a moderate history as it was first recorded in 1785. It is a saprophyte. Interestingly, this mushroom is normally found in housepots. This is because it is a tropical mushroom, why it was even in the forest where I found it is a mystery. Its spores are 5um in diameter. Finally, it is also considered toxic as a gastrointestinal irritant.
