A kind of UFO in mushroom cultivation, this variety appeared a few years ago and has become quite popular in North America. It is a cross between a European variety and a Japanese variety. Black Pearls offer a good compromise between eryngiis and oyster pleurotus.

They have a wider stem than pleurotus, and less dense than eryngiis. The caps are rounded like eryngiis, with a color ranging from light brown to dark brown striped depending on maturity and growing conditions. They grow in clusters and are easier to cultivate than eryngiis.

Variety considered part of the Pleurotus ostreatus family. Good flavor, reminiscent of pleurotus with a more pronounced umami note. Good productivity.
