Looks like a Toadstool and I’m not positive on what’s to the right side of it.

My understanding a Green Weeping Willow is just that a long polyp Toadstool. Not 100% sure but a quick google search shows it is.

I bought an account long polyp leather from Petco and the polyps have gotten a lot longer as I've had it. It looked similar to yours but not green, I'll post a pic when I get home. I'm not sure where the dividing line is on weeping willow cause I've seen some with crazy long polyps and some labeled as weeping willow with ones that look just kind of long. Maybe some one can weigh in on this.

Here's the polyps on mine. Definitely seen longer on weeping willow but they seemed to grow longer after I got it home and established. Good luck finding one!
