Hebeloma fragilipes is a small, slender-stemmed mushroom with a pale brown to ochre cap and a distinctively fragile stipe, giving rise to its species name. It grows in grasslands, heathlands, and woodland edges across Europe, forming mycorrhizal associations with various trees and shrubs. Like many Hebeloma species, it produces a faint radish-like odor and is considered mildly toxic.
