In pitch pine forest on grassy edge of road. Very fragile ring, yellowish stem more tan at apex, yellowish warts. My initial thought was Amanita persicina when I saw the small specimens, but then there were these vivid red individuals. Consensus on FB Amanita of North America seemed to be persicina. Unfortunately I did not save a specimen.
