About Enoki

A cold-fruiting species. Commercially grown in bottles or jars with restricted light and elevated CO₂ to produce long thin white stems. The wild form (brown, short stems, large caps) looks nothing like the commercial product. One of the few species that needs no light for the commercial form.
