I need Fiver Finger Grass for a spell, but I cannot find easily, and those that I find are very very expensive! is there anything to substitute Five Finger Grass for my spell?
My spell is one of Silver Ravenwolf's to break up a group of people who attack you! (and before you tell me something about consequenses! The spell works ONLY if I'm right, so no worries!)

Re: Substitute for five finger grass?
Five Finger Grass (or cinquefoil) is sort of an all-purpose herb, so I think that you could use any other herb that corresponds magically with whatever you intended to use it for.
Check out this site if you need some ideas for what you could use in place of the five finger grass, it's a pretty comprehensive list, with links for purchasing online (and the prices are decent): http://www.themagickalcat.com/Articles.asp?ID=242

There are so many varieties of this plant that you should be able to wildcraft it somewhere in your country.
Here is info for those of you unfamilar with cinquefoil, a member of the potentilla genus, which is in the family of roses.

Firebirdflys response is so apt because being able to identify and gather (ethically) plants is so fundamental to an overall working knowledge within this endeavor. Knowing the plants, understanding the plants, and yes, properly thanking the plant and knowing that when you take them from the Earth you were part of the process. Heck, people do buy stuff. I buy stuff, but.....
