September and October.It forms large hands, mainly near the roots of

big fagaceous trees such as white oak, beech, and tanbark oak.

It grows in persimmon,plum, apricot, Prunus ume and oak trees.

It invades the core of these trees. It decomposes lignin and leaves the cellulose,

which is the cause of so-called white rot.Wild Maitake has a good taste,a crisp

texture, and an excellent aroma.It is considered the first-rank edible mushroom.
