Default Looking for some big green yuccas...

If anyone knows where I can get some wee ones of the following big ones...
Y's carnerosana, faxoniana or treculeana. I think these are all pretty similar (big green yuccas)....gentle correction if I'm wrong would be appreciated.

I need to put some in the ground here for future hybridization.

Thanks...Steve

Aridlands has treculeana and I think faxoniana. very small seedlings. I just ordered carnerosana from Plantdelights.

Bob Gilette has some nice box size Yucca filifera locally if you want some. I was going to puck up a couple for my place. He has 24 and 36" boxes at a decent price....

Hey Ron...glad to see another succulent guy from Palmtalk. How are things over there? I need to drop in and say hello sometime. Allen (XericWorlds founder) is a good friend, and asked me to get on here...otherwise I've kind of dropped off the plant chat rooms.
An update on my big green yucca search...
I ordered 7 Faxoniana from High Country Gardens in NM. $7 each, and four were lacking center spears when they arrived. HCG is shipping me new ones, so at least they stand behind their products. They were tiny plants, though. If I had it to do over again, I'd probably use Plantdelights...I was being cheap, and it paid the normal dividends you'd expect when going cheap. Live and learn...
