CLOSED: Have 4 trade: Globe Thistle/ Pink Asters/ Rattlesnake Master

Chicago Suburbs, IL(Zone 5b)

I have mature clumps of the above plants that need a new home. I cant remember the name of the pink asters but they get tall (3ish ft if not pinched back) and they are covered in bright pink blooms in the fall.

I am interested in the following Plants:

Perennial milkweeds that will survive zone 5. I am *NOT* looking for Common, Swamp, or Whorled milkweed.

Cuttings from tropical milkweed (Bloodflower / Silky Gold).

Cacti and succulents plants or cuttings- I like haworthias and stapeliads will consider others.

Brug cuttings - No peach peach colored flowers and NOIDs are OK

Jewels of Opar


Will consider trading for seeds that will attract butterflies/hummingbirds let me know what you have

Melfa, VA(Zone 8a)

What about Echeveria nodulosa? I have 2 and both have at least 2 "babies".
I need another aster. I had one I traded for and when it grew last year there were "stickery" leaves and the flowers were rather hidden! I pulled them out with some difficulty...they were big...and they promptly went into the compost heap.

Do you still have globe thistle left? I'd have some brug cuttings; I have to see what is "sendable". I'm not far from you; 40 miles from Rockford. If you wanted a larger plant than what I could send, maybe we could arrange to meet in Rockford?

Sorry forgot to update that these plants are gone.
