  1. A beauty that I definitely want to see one day! I'm pretty sure it doesn't grow this far south? Posted 4 years ago
    1. According to the Bolete Filter (https://boletes.wpamushroomclub.org/product/suillus-grevillei/) it has only been found as far south as Ohio and West Virginia. Posted 4 years ago

''Suillus grevillei'' is a mycorrhizal mushroom with a tight, brilliantly coloured cap, shiny and wet looking with its mucous slime layer. The hymenium easily separates from the flesh of the cap, with a central stalk that is quite slender. The species has a ring or a tight-fitting annular zone.
