Our fruiting block of pink oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus djamor) showcases a tropical variety known for generating impressive clusters of mushrooms. These mushrooms range in color from a soft pink to a vibrant pinkish-red, influenced by the lighting conditions. They boast a meaty texture that is more substantial than other types of oyster mushrooms, and their striking color combined with a deep umami taste makes them an excellent alternative to meat.
Ideal for those just starting with mushroom cultivation, pink oyster mushrooms prefer warmer climates and consistently deliver multiple yields. They are among the simplest to encourage for repeated fruitings, and when maintained properly, they can produce a second harvest or even more!
