#LionsMane fun facts!! 🤪🍄🟫
1 – It looks like a lion, but it’s named after a hedgehog
OK, so not such a majestic namesake after all, but cute! The Latin name for Lion’s Mane is hericium erinaceus. Hericium is the genus (a classification) and a derivation of hericius, which means hedgehog.
2 – Lion’s Mane is a saprotrophic ‘recycler’
Saprotrophic fungi are mushrooms that feed on dead or decaying organic material, usually trees. The white rot fungus of Lion’s Mane breaks down the plant material and contributes to the recycling of essential nutrients in our ecosystem – nature’s little cleaners!
3 – Lion’s Mane is just the tip of the ‘iceberg’
Common to all fungi, their growth is dependent on their mycelium. Mycelium is the network of thread-like structures (hyphae) that grow underground or within the substrate in which the mushroom is growing. This hyphae network absorbs the nutrients from the environment and allows the mushroom’s fruiting body to grow
