Completely... Baffling

Though perhaps it shouldn't be. All kinds of strange things have happened since I started this garden experiment. Like worms finding their way into my tubs that are on my platform and nowhere near the ground! But this... is a new one.

Take a look at that, and tell me what you see.

Yeah, I couldn't tell yesterday either. (Sorry the picture is fuzzy, but I still wasn't sure even looking at it up close, lol).

Now - this particular plant is in a hanging thing. Once upon a time it was part of my upside down tomato experiment (Goldie). And this one lasted a good long time, gave me lots of tomatoes, even after Mom planted marigolds on top of it.

Eventually the tomato plant died, and there was just one scraggly, half-dead marigold in there. But I started watering it more and the marigold came back.

Apparently, the marigold has buddies. I didn't see them because it' slightly above my direct line of sight. But I watered from a different angle tonight, and so could see in more easily. This is what I saw...

Why yes, yes they are. Those are *mushrooms*! Two mushrooms in this hanging basket that is not near the ground. HOW IN THE HECK DID MUSHROOMS GET IN MY MARIGOLDS?!  

Here they are from another angle. They're kind of cute in a mushroom-y kind of way... *sigh*


So there you have it. I don't have words, lol. (Well, other than the ones above that just recounted my discovery tonight, ha ha!)
