Greenhouse burnt, needing to trade for cuttings

Hi Everyone. I have been on , well Gardenweb for over 10 years...just not in the past couple of years after the change. I grow a lot of Brugmansias and other plants, but we had a fire on the 29th, one of the heater's in the greenhouse overheated I guess, but it burnt up half of my 24' greenhouse, where all of my brugs were being kept over the winter. I trimmed them all back, cugt the melted plastic pots off the roots, tried to root the cuttings I trimmed, but they were burnt and the skin slid off and molded. My crinum lilies all charred and burnt...it was a pretty big loss between the materials of the greenhouse and my plants. I DO have other plants, but of course it's winter and I can't dig them right now. I also have tons of seeds. My trading list is NOT up to date. I have lost plants, I have gained plants, so please don't go by that. I am just heartbroken at what I've lost, but hoping to trade for some cuttings to get things going again for spring. Does anyone have any to trade ? I am in East TN, Zone 7, and we are having a really weird warm couple of weeks so it is a good time for shipping here.
Thank you
