I'm appealing to any mushroom experts out there! Just walked around my
lot and came across a small cluster of what I beleive to be white pom
pom mushrooms (that certainly seems to be the best description). Lacking
expertise in this area (as well as many others) I googled them and found
that they are meant to be a culinary delicacy. However it says that they
are typically 4 to 10 inches in diameter and the largest I have are
about 1.5 inches.
They are growing near some roses and not far from a pear tree.
My questions are as follows:
1. Are they really edible? If so any suggestions for preparing them?
2. Should I wait till they get to 4 inches and if so will they get that
big before winter? They certainly have appeared and grown quickly.
3. Are they are sign that all is not well with something? Will their
presence (and growth, both in size and numbers) be detrimental to the
rose and/ or pear?
Any expertise in the area greatly appreciated as always.

mysterious blue plum (seems to be Mont Royal) which is taking it's time.
