"Cantharellus tubaeformis" is a mycorrhizal edible fungus, meaning it forms symbiotic associations with plants, making it very challenging to cultivate. Cantharellus tubaeformis tastes as good as Golden chanterelle.

imilar species

Cantharellus lutescens differs only in colours, but is more rare, and is found only from very wet places. Both mushrooms are edible and taste similar, and are usually mixed.
