Hallo, 
I missed the original mail somehow.  Macrolepiota procera is called parasol 
mushroom, really one can see big parasol mushrooms, and they taste very good. 
The yound mushrooms are edible, but only the cap. The stem is not so good, it 
is hard.
Regards
Nalini

    Dinesh ji,

    Lovely pictures, mushrooms growing upto 12-15" itself is amazing, I am yet 
to see such a large mushroom.
    clear cap shot, nice habitat.

    I am really missing the monsoon magic in the Western ghats
