I thought they were in the Underground Jungle but I haven't seen any in my limited searching there. Should I be looking elsewhere?

On the unofficial Terraria wikia it is written that Glowing Mushrooms are found anywhere inside the Stone Layer.

The official wiki just states that Glowing Mushrooms can be found in deeper parts of the Underground.

The blue grass Glowing Mushrooms grows on, can be harvested and planted elsewhere, to make it easier to get more mushrooms. The grass can only be planted on Mud.

Ohhh NOT in the jungle but stone area near blue grass. I haven't seen the blue grass which is why I haven't seen glowing 'shrooms. – Robb Jun 14 '11 at 17:20
Indeed. I have never found blue grass in a jungle. – Simon Jun 14 '11 at 17:21
Recommended mining pattern for finding them or just start digging down and across? – Robb Jun 14 '11 at 17:22
As they can appear anywhere in the stone layer, I don't think there is a certain method of finding them, other than pure luck :] – Simon Jun 14 '11 at 17:24

@Simon Wikia -is- the original, but it was based on pre-release data initially and took a while to come around. Red/Blue dumped all the game assets to the TerrariaOnline guys (ie: Curse) and then that wiki took off from there. Id say its a much better source of information, and easier to navigate, than the wikia one. – James Jun 14 '11 at 21:01

They're generally in caverns with "mushroom trees". I don't think they're terribly common though.

Since they're caverns, digging horizontally might be a better bet, once you've got to an appropriate depth where you might be able to find some.
