That's quite a selection of Yuccas Adam. 😀 Yucca Guatamalensis.... is this not been renamed Elephantipes? I have 'jewel' which has some leaf rot but no stem rot. Yucca Schotti produced easy germination for me. This was my best first year seedling

BTW did any of your yucca seeds need stratification?

Hi Aaron... I got my seeds from Sunshine Seeds http://www.sunshine-seeds.de/
They have a reasonable selection of Yuccas.... when they are in stock. I have ordered some seeds from them this year but not many Yuccas this time.

Not bad. I buy Yucca seed from two main suppliers...
http://www.rarepalmseeds.com/wholesale_usd.shtml
and
http://www.cactusstore.com/catalog.php

I was VERY happy with the quality of seed and bulk seed count when ordering tens of thousands of seeds from http://www.cactusstore.com/
and I was happy with rare palm seeds. com for their counts. Their freshness was okay. I have also ordered from https://sheffields.com/ for BLE seeds. I was very happy with their speed and quality seed and packaging, however very expensive.

Holy cow, Adam, I can imagine what your germinating room looks like...
or should I say "germinating house"? 😆 😆

Good for you.

Enjoy seeing/reading the progress of your stuff.

I'm thinking about ordering some yucca seeds from The Koehres- Cactus. Last year it was a very good experience with it's seeds. Any suggestions about the hybrids to order, guys? Tim has made his pick...
