Re: Real life names for mushrooms?
Most of the mushroom are just invented, with no exact counterparts in the real world. Tellervo's Gift is loosely modelled based on Suppilovahvero. If the other ones in your list were based on some real references, seems like I have forgotten about them long since. But I have a vague memory that this question has been asked before, so if someone is expert in digging through old posts (probably in the old forums), there might be some forgotten pieces of information hidden there =) But, what I do remember is that most of the July 10, 2021, 06:54:38 PM |

Re: Real life names for mushrooms?
The wiki lists the names for the herbs and the berries and crops are self explanatory so I just need to figure out what the mushrooms are. Just note that the Wiki while seemingly generally correct on those accounts does make at least one mistake. Clayweed is almost certainly Chenopodium album aka Jauhosavikka or Saviruoho (=Clayweed), not Clotsfoot. As far as mushrooms go, I had assigned yellowcoat as keltavahvero or chanterelle and on basis of that I thought browncoat would be suppilovahvero, but apparently not. It does make sense if the mushrooms are more loosely based on Finnish mushrooms, yellow finger for one has so early harvest time it can't be any regular Finnish mushroom.
