Green Cable Housing for Brake & Gearing Cables

Are there good online sources, that offer ... and display online ... a wide selection of colors that brake & gear cable housing come in?

Brakes are the side-pulls for Rivendell Saluki's 650B wheels, size 47 frame. The gearing will use bar end shifters indexed for 9 speeds.

I'm reminded of the scene in the movie "Mother Jugs and Speed" in which the hamburger guy refuses to put peanut butter or some such thing on Bill Cosby's sandwich.

I've seen black, white, grey, red, yellow and blue but never green. Maybe Wal-Mart's bike department?
