Where can I buy Howea Palms?

I've tried to grow Majesty Palms here in southern IL and had decent luck the first 2 years by overwintering them inside. But this year the biggest one, my pride, pretty much shriveled up. It has just two 8 foot spears and all the fronds are dead. I expect it may recover once I put it back outside but it will take all summer for it to look good again. So I think I'll give up on Majesties except to use as annuals because they're so cheap.

My question is this... where can I find the Howea Palm? I've heard that they're much better to overwinter in low indoor light. I've checked all the usual places in my area, Lowes, Home Depot and some of the local nurseries (people are not big on palms around here so the selection is very limited)

I live just east of St. Louis Mo. Anyone know a place nearby to purchase a Howea F. ???

Thanks,

Doug
