User's notes

This was found with multiple examples in Lyneham High school garden plot amongst strw mulch, but I couldn't tell if it was growing from the mulch or something else in the soil, which had a lot of small sticks in it.

On second look I think its probably not novae-zeelandiae, but could still be a Cyathus.
