(Scientific Name: Calvatia gigantea) A round, white or grayish-tan colored mushroom that grows or "puffs up" into the shape of a round ball.

A highly prized and rare mushroom (fungus), that grows underground near the roots of trees. Most varieties of truffles that are considered edible are found 2 to 3 inches below the surface of the ground, but can be found as deep as 10 to 15 inches down.
