Blusher

A brown (from pale yellow to rich, red brown) capped mushroom.

Like a brown version of the better-known red Amanita. Found in broadleaf, coniferous and most types of woodland.

Apparently when bruised, all parts of the mushroom turn pink giving the mushroom it’s name - the Blusher.

Edible when cooked properly but contains a toxin that can cause anaemia.
