About
I was bored and decided to create a resource pack about it.
This resource pack makes mushrooms appear three-dimensional when placed on blocks or in a flower pot. I wanted to make them 3D when placed down, because I feel it suits them better. I'm not a massive fan of making everything 3D, but when used sparingly I think it does much better than a cross texture.
!A screenshot from the game Minecraft. Overlooking a row of four flower pots placed on top of smooth tuff blocks. From left to right, in each pot is a brown mushroom, a red mushrrom, a warped fungus, and a crimson fungus respectively.
I have also created sprites for the inventory textures. A gripe I have is that most of the textures of flora in the inventory are just the sprite that is used for the cross texture when placed. I wish textures for items in containers were unique, that way they could be more stylised, and better convey what the item is. I myself cannot be bothered doing that.

A small detail I used on the nether fungi was an "outer layer" similar to what a skin has. I think these small layers are really good at giving even more depth to a model without being as jarring as a full voxel.

NOTE: Game versions below 1.20.2 will display this pack as unsupported due to the 'supported_formats' property not being introduced until then. The pack will, in fact, work down to version 1.13.
