Lion’s Mane — Hericium erinaceus

With its cascading white spines and remarkable appearance, lion’s mane is one of the most distinctive fungi in the natural world. Found growing on hardwood trees, this fascinating mushroom has a long history in East Asian culinary and traditional herbal practices.

Lion’s mane has also attracted modern scientific interest for its naturally occurring compounds, including hericenones and erinacines, which are being investigated for their neurological properties.
