Lepista nuda

304_0951 [Lepista nuda]

Lepista nuda is a very common mushroom that occurs in Autumn - 
rarely in early Spring - in parks, forests, gardens, roadsides, etc.
 
In some mushroom-related literature,
it is mentioned that it is edible and that it has a pleasant fragrant smell.
 
Between you and me … 
I have never tasted it and I will never do; I am sure you know why!
 
Photographed in Athens botanical garden at the foot of Mt. Egaleo.
