'Medicinal Mushrooms' Botanical Postcard

A postcard featuring original botanical illustrations of traditional medicinal healing fungi. This card features 8 of the most commonly used species of medicinally significant mushrooms, all individually hand illustrated by me in colored pencil which I then arranged into this educational botanical art poster. Originally illustrated in colored pencil, then arranged into this botanical design. These fungus species have been used for many centuries in traditional medicine around the world for a vast host of ailments. Recent scientific studies are finally proving without a doubt their true capacity for various medicinal properties and treatment potential. Species included are: Turkey Tail (Trametes versicolor), Oysters (Pleurotus ostreatus), Lion's Mane (Hericium erinaceus), Reishi (Ganoderma lucidum), Chaga (Inonotus obliquus), Maitake/Hen of the Woods (Grifola frondosa), Cordyceps (Cordyceps militaris), and Shiitake (Lentinula edodes) Are you a fan of Paul Stamets? Most of these species were selected for the poster based on my readings of his thorough research on the potential of many long overlooked mushroom and fungi species. This art print is great for scientists, biologists, mycologists, foragers, botanists, hippies, mushroom aficionados and nature lovers. ----- Send it in the mail or frame it as an art print! Printed on high quality, heavyweight, and archival cardstock. Paper is coated on the front, and the back is unfinished to allow for easy writing. 5x7" (slightly larger than a standard postcard - all this means is you have to use a regularly priced postage stamp)
