Plant i.d please

[Guest]

Any clues. I saw it on the common. The only thing that came to mind was stickhorn but it definitely seems more plant than fungi



Thanks as always

My guess would be one of the inkcaps - Shaggy Ink Cap, Lawyers Wig, Judges Wig, Coprinus comatus

Seems a bit early for fungi to be sprouting?

Here's a list of the fungi that are around now UK Wild Mushroom Guide, edible and poisonous mushrooms, wild fungi

I think it will turn into a flower spike of some kind - if my memory was better I might be able to suggest a name - as it is unless anyone knows, we'll have to wait and see.

Some kind of saprophytic plant? What else is growing nearby?

Reminds me of Common(which it isn't) Broomrape

Thank you. You lot are good. Broomrape seems to fit perfectly. Thank you again

Agreed. I thought it might be butterbur, but broomrape seems a better fit.
