Devil's Cigar is starting to bloom

 

The Devil's Cigar is starting to sprout up near dead cedar elm stumps in River Legacy Parks. It can usually be seen from fall to December. This unusual fungus releases a cloud of smoke-like spores when it opens, making a hissing sound. It can only be foud in parts of Texas and Japan.

Check out the photos on our Facebook page.

Who knew fungus could be so interesting!
