Flammulina finlandica

Flammulina finlandica is a northern European winter mushroom described in 2018, close to the enoki (F. velutipes). Records show it on willow (Salix) in willow scrub, wet forest edges and hedgerows, mostly in Finland. It fruits from October into January, in near-freezing weather, and can be tried with enoki methods on hardwood sawdust.
