Well if you like larger yuccas.....maybe y. carneroseana(very few seeds), y. rostrata(lots of seed), y. brevifolia(very few seed). I can only trade up to 4 seeds of the y. carneroseana and y. brevifolia.
I will have more tree yucca seed in the spring.
I have many diferent yucca spieces in small pots, but would be sent bare root. Y. faxon, y.brevifolia, y. thombsoniana, y. rostrata, y. rigida.
I would trade up to 4 small seedling for 40 seeds (seedling = 10 seeds) or (1 of my seed for 1 of yours) or (50 y. rostrata seeds for 40 of your seeds). I pay to send them your way you pay to send them my way. Don't send your package untill you recive mine.
I hope to trade for at least 40 seeds :lol:

Ill take 4 seedlings for 40 of my seeds. Just send me an e-mail and let me know what seedlings you have? I want something thats going to be large or tall, do you have anything that trunks? I dont know yuccas so you will have to explain, and or pictures would help. Remeber these seeds are from the cold hardy louisiana growing outdoors unprotected in zone 6. It has went through -3 degrees f with minor tip burn.

Where is that S. louisiana located in Oklahoma? I'd love to go see it this coming spring to see how it came through our ice storm. I'm also in Zone 6 in Oklahoma with some S. louisiana, although not mature yet, as well as some other different type Sables. I do have a S. minor Tex ego type that has produced seed for the past 3 years. Here's what it looked like after the ice storm.
