Wanting an Agave victoria reginae

I'm in Brisbane and want to buy an advanced A. victoria reginae (tight, compact form, dark green with white edging -- see photo link below). No-one that I've contacted has one. I suppose only collectors are likely to be able to help. I'd prefer to buy locally. In any case, if anyone has one they're prepared to part with, I'd like one up to rockmelon size.

One ended on eBay a few days ago which was quite advanced, it didn't sell so you might be able to email them and make them an offer. Item number is 320476530980

Thanks, Olga. I appreciate your taking the time to pass this on.

s a v v o,

This is not the trade and sell forum, I will move this one and delete the other thread. Please don't double dip one post is sufficient.

i have tried germinating seeds of this species, i had only one seed germinate at high tempreature and lost it about three weeks later

Boo

They're really slow growing, getting a mature one will be fairly expensive

I've heard this. I hope I might find a collector who is prepared to part with it.

Oh I think the eBay one was an okay deal, Collectors Corner charge $200 for that size.
