    Today, at work in a nursery (plants, not kids) in S.Kent, UK I came across   
   just about the strangest fungi I have ever seen! No digicam so I will have   
   to describe it. I have no idea what it is called. Here goes...   
      
   In the soil of a very large potted palm there was an almost geodesic, orange   
   structure. Roughly dome shaped, about 3"x3". Pencil thick, rubbery, orange,   
   foamlike mushroom made up the structure. Think small Buckminster Fuller   
   dome. Dark sticky foul smelling gloop coated the inside of it. The remains   
   of a white cowl around the base. There was another emerging in the pot. This   
   one was about the size of half a squash ball and completely enveloped in a   
   snowy white cowl.   
      
   Truly the most amazing fungus I have ever seen. Any ideas as to it's name so   
   I can research it a bit?
