Found in red mulch

Maybe Tubaria furfuracea. A small brownish cap mushroom that grows during cold months in mulch. This would have a brown spore print. ?? I don't know about mushrooms absorbing dye but some people use certain mushrooms for dyeing purposes.

I agree this is likely Tubaria furfuracea. This is one of the "exceptions" I referenced in Sherwood's other post. This species is often found whenever winter or early spring weather turns warmer. I once found it in Binghamton NY during February.  Spore print for this species is not quite brown, more ocher or dingy yellowish.
