Ryadovka orange: photo and description

This inhabitant of the forests is quite easily recognizable because of the beautiful orange color. Ordinary orange begins its bearing with the other types of rowers, which is probably why it often goes unnoticed.

Places of growth of the row of orange - deciduous forests with a predominance of birch. Less commonly mixed as well as coniferous forests in the northern temperate zone: Ural, the middle part of Russia and the Far East.

The orange row is often called orange-brown, yellow-brown, or orange-brown. It grows in large colonies, forming wide rows or “witch circles”. Fruiting is always active, as the mushroom copes well with the arid climate.

We offer you to familiarize yourself with the description and photos of the orange or orange-brown line.
