Cantharellus Cinnabarinus 4
If you go to Brazil or Japan you could be lucky enough to see the famous Chlorophos Mycena, fluorescent mushrooms that release luminous spores and look astonishing! Many people say that the Cantharellus Cinnabarinus is one of the most beautiful mushrooms in North America and is easily recognized by its distinctive, flamingo-pink colors and the presence of false gills on the underside of the cap. It grows on the ground in eastern North America’s hardwood forests. The name comes from the Greek meaning cup/tankard or drinking vessel. It is edible and good tasting, fruiting in association with hardwood trees in the summer and fall.
