Hi Angelo,

Now I have seen the seeds, they do to my memory not look like seeds of Yucca nana. When I'm back at my place early next week, I will compare the seeds with my refference seeds. At first glance the seed looked too thin, and they are variable in "dullness" - "brightness", I wonder if the seeds are a mix of dwarf formed of Yucca baileyi, but I can't remeber how the seeds of Yucca baileyi looks. I think they should have wings, and the "Koehres seeds" doesn't have wings (Which they should't if they are Yucca nana, as they are not winged, so far so good!).

More details next week when I'm home again ;-)

Take Care everyone.

Benny
