Of the cone-like boletus. an edible

The spore-bearing surface Of the

form large, angular pores.
The tubes are yellow in color and

the stem. The pores readily separate
from the cap. When the spores are
mature they shake out easily with any
slight wind and drift about for

gets busy and grows. Months later
you may find new group of pine7
