Wanted: Tiny Plants!

Crossville, TN(Zone 7a)

I am looking for various small plants. They have to keep small leaves and flowers, If I have to trim the plants themselves it's okay.
Things like these,

Red Star, Rosy Posy
Rhodohypoxis baurii

Pink Star Grass
Rhodohypoxis milloides

Miniature Oakleaf Fig
Ficus pumila 'Quercifolia'

Peacock Mosses and things like it.

TINY ferns and fern like plants that stay very small leaved and short. (think ground-covers)

Unusual sedums with neat colours and or leaves.

TINY TINY flowering things. If the leaves and flowers are small I can trim the plants to keep them small.

Trees with small leaves and flowers.
They don't HAVE to have flowers, but would be nice.
I am talking about stuff like Serissa and evergreens.
Cuttings are fine. I really want the Pink flowering Serissa if possible. I have the white flowered variegated one.

Remember, I need things that will keep small leaves and or flowers.
These are for my bonsai so you get the picture lol.

I am even game for your weeds! If ya don't mind crawling around your lawn looking for teeny flowers and neat looking leaves hehe.
Don't laugh, I do this A LOT! ^_^

I don't have a lot of money for shipping so if I can get a good mix from one or two people I'd be VERY happy, lol.
Take a look at my TradeList and lemme know something!

Thanks!

-Jocie.

Hey, this reminded me that we were talking about tiny plants in the chat room, and I was supposed to get back to you with a suggestion or two...

I've got a couple of little alpine asters and alpine catchfly plants that I grew from seeds I obtained through NARGS. The one that's really staying small (so far -- remember these are just 1 year old seedlings, sprouting out from winter dormancy) is European Alpine Catchfly, Lychnis alpina var. serpenticola. If I get blooms & manage to save seeds, I'll LYK! :-)
