1 - 3kg Lion's Mane Mushroom Grain Spawn (Hericium Erinaceus)
LEAD TIME = 2-10 DAYS
Lion’s Mane (Hericium erinaceus) is an unusual looking mushroom that grows in white snowball-like formations. It releases spores from cascading spines which elongate as the mushroom matures. In the wild, Lion's Mane can be found across North America and Eurasia where it grows on old beech and oak trees and on dead-wood, helping to recycle nutrients in forests. This mushroom is on the red-list of threatened species in many European countries including the UK where it has been given the highest level of protection under the wildlife and countryside act 1981. Therefore, wild foraging of these mushrooms is not recommended.
