Pleurotus columbinus, the blue oyster mushroom, producing a large fruiting cluster from the end if an inoculated beech log. The primordia formed under the write-on metal tag stapled to the end of the log to ID the variety. More mushrooms are bursting through the beech bark. Blue oyster performs well on beech, in this case, nine months from inoculation.
