The gourmet mushroom that smells like almond cookies.
Almond Portabella is one of the most exciting mushrooms you can grow at home. A close relative of the common Portabella, this warm-weather species produces large, meaty mushrooms with a remarkable almond aroma that fills the garden and kitchen.
Widely cultivated in Brazil and valued around the world for both its culinary and medicinal properties, Almond Portabella is easier for home growers than many other Agaricus species and rewards patience with abundant harvests of delicious mushrooms.
