Fruits in late summer and autumn after warm spells broken by steady rain, typically when daytime temperatures sit around 12 to 20 C. A few days of moisture following a warm period usually triggers a flush.
A mature cap can reach 30 cm or more across, making it one of the largest gilled mushrooms in Europe, and the loose ring really does slide freely up and down the stem.
Grows on the ground in grassy, open places such as pasture, meadows, road verges, woodland edges and clearings, often on poor or sandy soil. It favours sunny spots and is not tied to a particular tree.
A prized edible with a mild, slightly nutty taste. The caps are good dusted in flour or breadcrumbs and fried whole like a schnitzel; the fibrous stems are usually too tough to eat and are discarded.
Look for the tall scaly stem with a distinct snakeskin pattern and a thick movable ring that slides up and down. Pick only well-grown caps where the snakeskin stem is clearly present, and never confuse it with the smaller Chlorophyllum molybdites or dapperlings, which can be toxic.
Can be confused with members of the genus Chlorophyllum, especially Chlorophyllum brunneum and the American Chlorophyllum molybdites, which cause stomach upsets. The parasol is told apart by its tall snakeskin-patterned stem, a movable double-edged ring and flesh that does not turn red when cut; the dangerous lookalikes are stockier with a bulbous stem base and often bruise reddish. Avoid any small Lepiota species, several of which are deadly poisonous.
