WTF?!? These two critters popped up in my big corn plant suddenly in the last few days. This is an indoor plant but about once every 10 days I bring it outside to water it and let it drain for several hours.

    Those look like they may be a type of mushroom. I could be wrong though.

    Those are just some mushrooms. It’s probably been slowly growing a mycelia network through the soil and only now started fruiting as it likes the conditions

      Not on its own but it can sometimes be a symptom of another issue. Usually due to overwatering which causes root rot, but sometimes the mushroom just likes the environment at the moment. I have some kind of mushroom growing out of my hanging pothos planter inside the apartment. Shriveled up and died before I even noticed it

    Flowerpot parasol. It's harmless to plants. If you have pets or kids, don't let them eat it; it can cause stomach upset

      Only if you don’t like to see them.
