Collibia curved is an unusual mushroom. It is quite large, the hat can reach 7 centimeters in diameter, and sometimes more, a tubercle is often observed in the center. In young mushrooms, the edges are bent down, in the future they begin to straighten. The color of the cap is a very pleasant brown or yellow and other warm shades in between, the edge is often lighter. To the touch, Collibia is curved smooth, slightly oily.
This mushroom loves to grow on trees. Especially on those that are no longer alive, regardless of whether it is a coniferous or deciduous forest. Most often found in groups, so you can quite easily collect enough. If you head to the forest from late summer to mid-autumn.
This mushroom can be eaten very easily, it does not have a special taste or smell. It is impossible to find an analogue of such a mushroom on a tree. Its curved leg fully justifies the name and distinguishes it from all species.
