Mushrooms growing at Goodview Garden

I Yesterday morning, I walked past the garden and found some mushrooms among the small little plants. The little plants were newly planted and maybe some spores might had landed on the new soil and the conditions were right for the mushrooms to grow. I wonder what kind of mushrooms are these and whether they are edible.

When I past by again in the late evening, the mushrooms had withered. I think that the conditions were optimum in the morning for the mushrooms to grow but as the temperature got higher and surrounding became warmer, the conditions were not good for the mushrooms to survive.

The next morning, new mushrooms start to appear among the little plants. Those edible mushrooms that I have seen will probably last a week. I think either the conditions were not right or they are not edible. Anyone has information on these mushrooms?

Goodview Garden at Bukit Batok

Goodview Garden actually won a second prize in a competition for the design of the multi-storey carpark that helps to block the noise from the MRT trains when they ran on the tracks. It has a little secret but one can easily guess from its name that it has many gardens in the estates. So the secret is its gardens. I will post some photos of the gardens here.

Every time I walk across this bridge, I get to enjoy the view of the gardens. You can hear the water running down the small canal when it had rained. The water will flow down towards the pond and there is a small pavilion there.

Can you identify this plant?
