Armillaria mellea
10 cc/ml liquid fungi mycology culture syringe with a sterile needle.

Honey Mushroom, Armillaria mellea, is a well known wood decomposer recognized for its golden honey colored caps, white gills, and ability to form expansive underground networks. Some strains within the Armillaria group are capable of producing bioluminescent mycelium, creating a soft natural glow often referred to as foxfire. This makes the species especially appealing for science education, novelty cultivation projects, and mycological study.

Armillaria mellea grows on hardwood logs, stumps, buried wood, and enriched woody substrates. It is a strong colonizer that forms thick rhizomorphs and dense mycelial mats. While not typically cultivated for food due to its aggressive nature and mixed edibility reports, it is highly valued for research, ecological projects, bioluminescent displays, and studies related to fungal biology and wood decay processes.

This species is frequently used in demonstrations of natural bioluminescence and the mechanisms behind foxfire. Its glowing mycelium can be observed in dark, humid environments and serves as an excellent educational tool for classrooms, science exhibits, and fungal enthusiasts exploring luminous fungi.
