Fred may be able to tell you, so in case he doesn't read this you may want to tree mail him. I know the ones James' uses we get at a supply company that we get our fertilizer and stuff from.
You can get them at of it at Lowes in a pack of 100 and I have seen the spools of it at Home Depot and I think walmart, maybe Lowes as well. The spools aren't always in the garden section so you may have to ask about them.
I found a websit that has the boxes of twist ties

Go to Amazon and search garden twist ties or plastic twist ties, there are several on there.
