The plants where I built up the lower sections using a sort of tube are a type of Dracaena trifasciata. They start as these sort of half-tubes that unfolds into full leaves and I was a little unsure of how to do the branching technique with only a half-tube that slowly unravels, that's why the results look like they do.
As for thick area of solid black on the mushroom's cap... that's just a mistake that I tried fixing, which resulted in a bigger mistake, that I really couldn't fix. But instead of scrapping it and redoing it I submitted it.
Thank you for the critique, hopefully i've understood correctly and adjusted properly.
