Hatching 3 Stinkhorn "eggs"... (scroll down)

             

The Whole Family

As they hatched, the Stinkhorns began to justify their name. They were soon relegated to the
back porch, photographed over the course of one day as they swiftly developed and then returned to
the bark mulched path, along with the spores, which are visible on the plate above.

Next year we should have quite a crop! They appear to be Ravenel's Stinkhorn (Phallus ravenelii).
