Hi! I just moved to Evanston and have a full sun double wide lot that's just lawn grass. I'm looking for full sun plants of all types, so long as it's not aggressive or a bush/tree. I hope to set up spaces for different types of gardens: native plants, ornamental perennials, edibles, rain garden, arid plants, etc. I've been dreaming of being able to do this for years!

I don't have a car, so I'd need to either have the plant/item dropped off or I can pick it up at the swap. I live near the swap site, so I should be able to come early to help set up.

ISO:
- Anything garden related. Hoses, accessories for rain barrels, raised bed materials, garden rake, etc, please.
- Uncommon succulents, either as houseplants or outdoors
- Cold hardy sedum, yucca, sempervivum and other succulents for planting outside
- Plants and materials that are good for full sun rain gardens
- Full sun native plants that are under 3ft tall
- Pumice, chunky perlite, turface, crushed granite, and other materials good for potting up succulents
- Hyacinth
- Red or Pink Bleeding Hearts
- Fuchsia

Offer
- Crassula ovata (Jade plant) cuttings
- String of Hearts cuttings
- Giant evergreen bush. Maybe a Yew? Healthy and mature. I didn't see any flowers or berries. If you're interested in digging it up or even if you just want branches, please let me know.


Thank you!
