Details for Blewit (Lepista nuda)

Blewit (Lepista nuda)

Lepista nuda, commonly known as Blewit is an edible mushroom native to Europe and North America but can now increasingly be found in Australia where it was introduced. Its color ranges from lilac to purple-pink that darkens as it ages. Some North American species will have a duller color tending more towards tan, but will still have purplish tones on the stem and gills. It has a standard mushroom shape with a simple cap and a thick, short stem. Blewits have a strong flavor and should be cooked before eating. They have a very distinctive odor that has been likened to that of frozen orange juice.

Blewit has a long fruiting season during the cooler months of september until freeze up. It typically takes more than a growing season to establish so it is best to have it in a semi-permanent location. For same season fruiting, it should be planted in early spring, however it can be planted in spring, fall or even winter in milder climates. Layered hardwood and pine needle mixed with layers of leaves and organic matter are ideal for growing Blewit.
