Considered by many to be one of the best edible mushrooms, the Blewitt Mushroom (Lepista nuda) is a Winter-hardy mushroom that are found alone or in small clusters near leaves, pine duff, compost piles, old wood chips or sawdust, and on lawns under pine trees. 

Use both cap and stem in sautees, in marinades, and grilled. About 2 inches in diameter. Flavor is stronger than the oyster family.

This beautifully blue mushroom grows well at fall temperatures in the 40-50° F range.
