A solid bright-orange *Discosoma*-type mushroom (the flat, non-bubbled form) named for its uniform citrus-orange disc.
📜 Backstory
Solid-orange *Discosoma* shrooms have been collected and traded under the 'Sunkist' label long before the bounce craze, valued for clean uniform color. These are typically wild-collected colored colonies that propagate readily, making the flat Sunkist far more attainable than its bubbled bounce namesake.
Keeper tips for this variant
Lower-light, lower-flow placement keeps the orange saturated; bright direct light can bleach the color.
