Phallus transplant, part 2

A coworker came to me complaining that her yard was infested with penises. She further added that it was inappropriate for these penises to infest the property of a lesbian couple, and what should she do about it? I told her to dig up the penises, their eggs, and the mulch that they came from, and discard it. Then after a moment I changed my mind--no, give the mulch to me!

Her girlfriend dug out the offending mycelium and bagged it up, and the next day my coworker gave me the bag. I saved a bunch of the stinkhorn eggs and put them in my little mulch bed--this one, where I grew the last stinkhorns--and put the rest of the material in my compost bin.

Well, they never grew in my mulch bed, but they sprouted like gangbusters in my compost bin!

These are Mutinus caninus the dog stinkhorn.
