Very nice. I might have pitcher plants, but I don't have any interesting fungi here. Aside from what's on my feet, of course :)

This is a good example of how my brain works:
I have a vision of you walking around on strange, stumpy mushroom feet.
Several hours later, it hits me that you have athlete's foot.

I can see a nice patch of stinkhorns adding to your man yard...
