With great patients and hope I wandered along the creek at Hillsdale lake. As I wove between the close growing pre-forest growth, this is were the abundance of Morel mushrooms were this year, not by the Old growth trees, I puzzled at what I had found. At first I thought it was a Urn. After some research, I discovered it was an Orange Fairy Cup.
The Orange Fair Cup is similar to other cup Fungi, but is found on packed soil.
Orange Peel is Found under conifers and Scarlet Cup is found on hard wood sticks.
– Found in North America – Spores are big and have spiny projections – Grow to about 4 inches –
– – Inside colored and outside more white –
As I dream tonight, maybe a fairy will ask me to join them in a drink from my Orange Fairy up.
