Observations by jaymeered

The whole cap is rosy red in colour, the texture smooth. Under the sun, the colour is more vivid and gives a stronger shade of crimson. The cap is shaped convex like a classic common button mushroom, and the gills are white, like pale cream and concisely spaced. The stem is also pale and relatively thick; the base is slightly clavate. The diameter is about 5 centimetre, whilst the stem is about 2 to 3 centimetre tall and it’s thickness around the size of a thumb print. After maturing, the cap becomes faded in colour (somewhat orange and pink), with the exterior having rounded bumps. The mushroom gets slightly sticky after raining, and the cap surface colour fades even more. The centre becomes depressed and overall flatter, hence why it appears flatter.
