It's Friday and we wanted to do something fun so here are some funghi.
This hand colored plate is from Rambles in Search of Flowerless Plants, by British botanist Margaret Plues. Margaret wrote an entire series of "Rambles," which were marketed towards the general public, in addition to other scientific works on British grasses and ferns.
