Golden Oyster

Pleurotus citrinopileatus
$18.00

Golden Oyster is the warm weather champion. Where most mushroom species struggle above 75°F, Pleurotus citrinopileatus thrives in the heat — making it perfect for Texas growers.

Our Golden Oyster liquid culture produces bright yellow clusters with a delicate, cashew-like flavor. It's an aggressive colonizer that fruits in beautiful, branching formations.
