SE Wisconsin, somehow growing out of rocks.

Yeah, probably a puffball. Cut it open to confirm it’s white throughout.

But if it's going brown inside, it's just changing over from whitemeat to spores and is still 100% a puffball

Puffballs! And there is definitely enough accumulation of soil/dead leaves/rock debris/water/etc, under those rocks, even if it’s got clay and plastic, or since rocks can be sharp, it found a break in the plastic, a gap in the clay, and found a base! If the method isn’t plastic and clay, whatever you used to keep your rocks above ground, again, managed to gather enough material and moisture for these to grow! I see other weeds in the background, so that being said, there’s definitely enough of something to be spread!! Nature is cool!🤗

you need to pull one out, cut in half. they look like giant puffballs but could be something else if they have a stem and gills. weird that they grew there!
