Anyone want Creeping Fig plants?

I have six creeping fig plants to trade. Anyone want to trade for a ground cover you can walk on (creeping thyme, irish moss, something else I don't know about)?

I was told it would fit my needs when I bought it (never buy a plant without researching it I guess), but it doesn't and I don't want to have to find the receipt and pack it up along with my two year old in order to take it back. I saw they are used in topiaries, under "ficus repens" on Google.com.

Hi Robb333 -

I have some silvery-colored ground cover -- I don't know what it's called but it spread quickly and is nice to look at. I can also get my hands on some (rooted) ivy, if you're interested.

Let me know -

Hey Rini-

They all went to Paula. Sorry. I appreciate your offer and is there anything else you might want?
