About Magic Mushrooms : PRINT

Here comes Surya's magic mushrooms! We've admired these red spotted mushrooms in story books, but never bothered to find out more about them, until now. The botanical name is Amanita muscaria and the common name is fly agaric or fly Amanita. It is a poisonous kind of fungu, well known for its hallucinogenic properties. It is found in abundance in the cental and northern Europe. According to the legend, the vikings ate these mushrooms to induce their rage.

I was always fasinated with this pretty mushroom that I always found in comics and story books. I loved their shape and colour very much. Thank you Surya for reminding me of my childhood. Nice collection of 8 big and small mushrooms. Good colours too Smile
