The seedlings I have came from a plant next to this giant. 😉 6' tall and 5' wide. My seedlings have lived through nights in the low 20's-teens F.

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

Hast22,
I think I have some if you want a few? They take awhile before they sart growing fast. They grow like grass for the first year or 2. And yes, they will need water after they sprout, but that is up too you. 😆

Thanks to Aaron I have a few seedlings of the wheeleri. I also have some seedling of the leiophyllum and the longissimum. Planning to get the texanum and texanum v aberrans which are supposed to be "winter hardy" 😆 😆 😆

My Wheeleri hasn't got the blues.... it's GREEN with envy 🙄 Over here Dasylirion Wheeleri appears to be sold as a different colour. Mind you with the crap summer temperatures we get, that's probably the reason why 😆

Hi guys. I started some Dasylirion wheeleri seeds 2 weeks ago. Thanks to Aaron for the seeds. I got 15 seedlings in beer cups already and the ziploc bag is still full. I run out of beer, beer cups and cactus soil. I hope they will survive. Barb said her seedlings died from the heat I believe a few years ago. She was probably yelling at them . lol.

15 of these beer cups are Dasylirion wheeleri , the other are various yucca, several golden barrel cactus. The seeds seem to love the heat in the greenhouse for germinating. Within 2 weeks I have had Dasylirion wheeleri, various yuccas, golden barrel cactus, musa sikkimensis banana, musa acuminata banana, and another cactus.

Hey Keith, congrats on the germination of all that stuff.
You ran out of beer???? 😆 oh no!
Styrofoam cups work great too, cheaper than the beer cups.
Good work!
