They go away and leave organic matter for the garden. I think their presence is always a good thing because it shows there is organic activity going on in the garden (usually decomposition). Organic activity is what our gardens need so it is a good thing for me. I'd worry about a garden that had no mushrooms.tinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17415302577518111227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7113123529932691813.post-31732591694600775032009-10-13T08:17:31.567-05:002009-10-13T08:17:31.567-05:00I love them.
