Specimen notes
Public Note:
PinkWellington. This pink oyster mushroom was growing in a private garden mulch in Wellington. The owner had never grown oyster mushrooms before.
Morphology suggests P. djamor, but genomic DNA data indicates this might actually be a hybrid between P. pulmonarius and P. djamor. Further research into the genomic data is required to confirm. Culture of this specimen died in normal 4 degree fridge, which is typical for P. djamor but not P. pulmonarius.
