The onion stalk parasol (Leucocoprinus cepistipes) is a distinctive mushroom. It is bright white with a bell-shaped cap and often grows in gardens and parks, where it is highly visible. Many people affectionately call it the “Rest Stop Mushroom,” because it so often appears in the neatly landscaped areas at interstate rest stops. The elegant-looking onion-stalk grows across North America, and while it’s not edible, it is still a neat find.
