hello!
I am very new to gardening, I've just got my first one in fact!
I've noticed these tender white shoots growing in clumps in my lawn.
they are around 15 metres away from a patch of unkempt wild grasses
Any idea what they are?!

If you live in Derbyshire, as I do.
It's a fungus called Clavaria fragilis, commonly known as White spindles:

Not harmful to your lawn and I think it is quite beautiful!
Thank you all, you clever bunch!
I prefer rhe nickname for them of Fairy Fingers, rather than the wormy ones!
I will leave them be.
