What is the habitat of the liberty cap?
Liberty cap is found mainly in the Northern Hemisphere's grasslands, especially in areas grazed by livestock but not directly on dung. With a slimy, conic to bell-shaped cap that's pale to dark brown, this mushroom is distinguishable by its purple-brown gills and possible bluish hue on its stem, especially when bruised. It typically fruits in the fall, thriving on decomposing grass roots and other grassland debris.
