What is Ear Mushroom?
The red ear fungus is a species of the class Heterobasidiomycetes with a reddish-brown fruiting body and shaped like a human earlobe. The fruiting body is chewy in texture and in the wild grows on wet and damp dead tree trunks.
According to the data I have researched, a lot of red ear fungus grows on rotten stems or twigs. With the help of the moisture content in the wood, this ear fungus can survive.
The red ear mushroom has blackish red characteristics, has a soft texture.
