Anyone know what this is? It’s like a ball attached to the bottom. I’m thinking some kind of mold maybe?

Wow never seen that before. Id say some kind of mold or fungus as well. Funny looks like the hygrozyme ad above

I have only ever seen that on the ground. Didn't know it could colonize a plant. It should be harmless.
