Foraging tips

  1. Look for Decaying Wood. Focus your search on areas with abundant decaying logs, branches, or leaf litter, as it is a saprobic species.
  2. Check Forest Floors. It often grows directly on the forest floor, sometimes appearing to grow from soil but actually attached to buried wood.
  3. Seasonal Timing. Best found from late summer through autumn, though it can appear earlier or later depending on local conditions.
