A somewhat interesting fungus, an Earthstar fungi produces a central puffball that sits on a platform consisting of four to ten plump, pointed ‘arms' that give the fungus a star-shaped appearance which makes them easily identified. The colors aren’t star-like though, as the oddly beautiful earthstar fungus displays various shades of brownish-gray. The central puffball, or sac, is smooth while the pointy arms have a crackled appearance. Don’t worry too much about star fungi in lawns and keep in mind that it’s just nature doing its thing.
