What Species are These...?

Found these little mushrooms in the soil of a potted oleander. The soil was very sandy. I'm wondering what species we have here?
In the pics you can see a touch of blueing on the stem fibrils, but otherwise the stem doesn't seem to blue a lot when damaged, nor the cap.
Unfortunately there were no mature ones for ID purposes, only these immature ones...

Looks like an active Psilocybe species. Where did the plant come from?

More than likely it came from Southern Cal, not totally sure.

Hmmm, substrate seems off to be cubes, not much of a veil either. I'm thinking a wood-lover.

The bluing around the veil seems to be a giveaway.

I'd have to agree with this assessment. I also might ponder the thought that they may not get fully mature in the given habitat. Are these still alive?

I'd suggest trying to get them as close to maturity as possible to further help in species determination.. Perhaps even microscopic analysis of spores if possible.

The substrate is in the picture. It's basically sandy potting soil with a fair amount of very fine wood chips. They are alive and I'll see if I can get them closer to maturity. It doesn't seem like they would grow after being dug up, but we'll see.

Not to add confusion, but couldn't they possibly be P. caerulipes?

Way out of season, and distribution it would seem.
