Hello All. Am looking to swap to acquire the following: Agave triangularis, A. montana, A. murpheyi. Am also looking for Bulbine alooides and Manfreda undulata & virginica. Can offer Agave maximilliana pups (skinny or etiolated but this taxon), Agave zebra, Agave hookeri (possibly something else; google will get you pics). Have a lot of other agave and yucca but don't think anyone will swap for what I want for the common species. Thanks in advance!

Re: looking for a few species in trade
I may have a spare A. montana. Will have to check my bench with potted plants and see what shape it is in. My A. murpheyii has some pups, and my A. murpheyii variegata has some too. The regular murpheyii pups are pretty shaded so look pretty good, but the variegated pups are a little bleached from the sun.
It is what it is!

Re: looking for a few species in trade
would be glad to send you a couple of the ersatz hookeri pups, a couple of the etiolated maximilliana pups and a single zebra pup if you can use them in return for the montana and a couple of the unvariegated murpheyi? I appreciate you considering a swap!

Re: looking for a few species in trade
I have the montana, I will get it out of the crowd of plants and take a picture so you can see if it is to your liking.
I will pull a couple of murpheyii pups later this week. They are getting a little bit of sun as the bush the parent plant is growing mostly under is getting defoliated a bit due to the crazy hot weather we have been having, but there are at least 2 good sized pups, and a third which is smaller.
