Red Reishi Mushroom:

The Red Reishi mushroom is a polypore mushroom belonging to the genus Ganoderma, and is also known as Lingzhi. Red Reishi is red-varnished, kidney-shaped cap gives it a distinct appearance. When fresh, Reishi is soft, cork-like, and flat. It lacks gills on its underside, and instead releases its spores via fine pores. Depending on the age of the mushroom, the pores on its underside may be white or brown. Reishi mushroom is used in traditional Chinese medicine. In nature, it grows at the base and stumps of deciduous trees, especially that of the maple. Only two or three out of 10,000 such aged trees will have Reishi growth, and therefore its wild form is extremely rare. Today, Reishi is effectively cultivated on hardwood logs or sawdust/woodchips.
