Frequently encountered locally, it is a fawn coloured, very fragile and slim structure, cap is thin and almost translucent, growing in a raised bath tub planter with lots of humus.
Possibly a Conocybe species - try to show an image of its gills, stem attachment to cap and also to substrate or that part within the earth, this will assist with ID, many thanks
Thanks for the suggestions, Teresa. From memory the gills were a similar colour to the cap, (using a small handheld mirror, I don't like to disturb/damage them).
The mycelium will produce many more - that is the live part - these are only the fruiting bodies - bit like fruit on a tree - the tree doesn't die once you pick the fruit - neither will the fungi - good luck with future finds
