Dave W Posted June 15, 2022 Report Share Posted June 15, 2022 I agree with Cajun. Some of the telling traits are... large fronds (larger than for Maitake), black/gray bruising/staining, and perhaps most telling is time of year. Grifola frondosa (Maitake) is rarely seen earlier than mid August. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
