I definitely stick to the ones I know too. Not familiar with that one although I see it is listed as occurring in N. America. I know there are a couple of other edible shrooms in my region but I haven't tried them. I am certain I had several Horse Mushrooms right here in my yard last summer but I wouldn't do it. Just couldn't.

I have Destroying Angels in my yard almost every year. I also had three excellent specimens of Aspen Scabers in the yard last summer. First time ever. Also some recurring Puffball Mushrooms.

When I remodeled my yard a few years back, i bought a dumptruck load of soil from a farmer.

Where ever that soil is I get a nice crop of Suillus bovinus. Easy to recognize and edible, I don't eat them as the best ones grow next to the road and who knows what's under my yard! WWII was fought in this neighborhood.

I have puffballs every year in the same place. Once found a giant edible bolete in the backyard and I get a ton of crap mushrooms.

About two or three years ago I injected spores in my yard to see what would happen, but thus far there seem to be no results.
