I bet it's not a plant imported from The Netherlands or Poland but perhaps is some clone from the Ru...

Thanks Mario! I have another excuse for labeling this yucca as the nana. Since I was sawing many seeds of the various yucca species and forms in one pot so it would be possible if some seeds have been mixed up easily. I should check some other "nana complex" seedlings.
