Description

Several species of morels grow in Kashmir. They are commonly referred to as black, white, gray, yellow, and half-free morels. All are taxonomically classified as members of the genus Morchella and of them Morchella esculenta, the Black Morel being the best and most sought-out spring mushroom. Scientifically, there are probably two species of the white or yellow morel and at least one species of black morel in Kashmir India.

Morels exist most of the time underground as a network of cells (mycelium) connected to tree roots, rotting material, and the soil. In late March, the mycelium sends up the thing we recognize as a morel aboveground. This structure is a way for the fungus to reproduce; spores are produced and released from the spongelike part. The mycelium of a morel can live for decades.
