I am not sure if you mean "are cultivated" or "grow naturally".

Chlorophyllic plants will not survive underground, but caves and tunnels have been used as mushroom farms and (rather stretching the point) maturing cheeses - the blue varieties are so by veins of microscopic fungi.

Fungi will grow naturally underground but only if suitable nutrients are available, such as from the body of a dead insect or washed-in vegetable matter.
