Aptly named. They look almost like they are turned inside out.

I was thinking more of wide-brimmed hats with tattered veils hanging down. Either way, they look sad, and grim.

How interesting, I’ve never seen these before. Are they poisonous?

While I much prefer the fresh specimens, complete with shaggy hats, I have to say, these do have a certain elegance. I’m kinda reminded of the Ascot scene in My Fair Lady.

Interesting. It looks like s sort of blue dye on them. Could you dye things with them?

I don’t know. Possibly. Though you’d probably need a fixative.

I thank you, Dale. That is how I saw them. And perfect to find them standing around a grave.
