There's a fungus known as dead man's fingers... because it can literally look like the fingers of a corpse bursting out of the ground. (www.allianceforthebay.org)

There is a willow grows aslant a brook, That shows his hoar leaves in the glassy stream. There with fantastic garlands did she come Of crow-flowers, nettles, daisies, and long purples That liberal shepherds give a grosser name, But our cold maids do dead men's fingers call them
