Certified ExpertA.Unfortunately, your photo did not come through. I am unable to see the mushroom in question. Knowing, exactly, what it is can mean the difference between a living plant and a dead one.

Certified ExpertA.I think that you are on the right track with your diagnosis. You can try fungicides, and feeding, but don't cut them until next spring.
Here are some articles that will help:

zone 7Q.Will Muhly Grass Thrive In Partial Sun?
The front of my house get Southward sun, so that would allow for about 4 hrs of sun. Is that enough for the plant to flourish?

Certified ExpertA.A south-facing exposure is considered full sun so that is perfect. Muhly grass likes it hot and dry. Keep it watered till it is established, though.

78610Q.Gulf Muhly Grass Recently Planted In TX In Full Sun Light Planter Boxes. Why Has It Started Turning Brown? Is This A Bad Sign?
I planted 7 Gulf/Pink Muhly grass plants in tall planter boxes in direct central texas sunlight. These have been planted for about a month now and are turning a light brown color and the green is going away. What is the cause of this? We try to water heavily but may miss a day or two throughout the week.

Certified ExpertA.This sounds like it could be overwatering. They don't like to be wet, and do need a dry out between waterings. I would wait until it is dry down to about 1/3 or 1/2 of the container. This article will give you some general care on the plant:

Certified ExpertA.It could be a case of soil that is too fertile, or not enough sunlight. Both can be reasons that you would only get vegetative growth. These grasses are usually best neglected, and naturally grow in poor soils.
If possible, you may have to change location, or let them leech nutrients form the soil on their own for a few years.
