I have used seed from 2009 with excellent germination results. Some germination rates were a tad lower but nowhere near where what I thought they'd be and all I did was stick them in a freezer bag and forgot about them until I began going through boxes to downsize my home and BAM !!! there they were. At first I couldn't believe I'd been carrying packed boxes like that around with me. Truth to tell I honestly don't know why I had those seeds that long. i guess I'm what you might call a hoarder. Honestly, I was totally surprised by the viability of these seeds. Oh, let me just say this was 20 plus packs of a whole different variety of seeds and from various seed suppliers.
I was simply overjoyed to discover this especially since I live on a very low income.
