Default Coconut, seeds ofdifferent varieties/hybrids?

Hi,

I was wondering if anybody of you guys is growing special varieties of Cocos nucifera, such as 'Fiji Dwarf' or 'Red Spicata Dwarf' or any other interessting vaiety which start to flower very young and don't get to tall.
I want to try out to germinate them. Seedling may be a little problem, due to regulations, but seeds are save to ship to Europe and there's no certificate required as long as it is private and only a small amount of seeds.
But any way, I would also take seedlings, because customs in Greece are not very much checking the content. I haven't had any problems with banans in the past.

Also any information on the different varieties is appreciated.

Thanks

Bernd
