Very old seed germinating
When in USA 13 years ago I was given some
Hibiscus seed- 1 year old then. I discovered some that I hadn't sown and planted them 2 weeks ago. I notice today that 1 seed at least has germinated. Tom Atkinson |

Ditto Lavatera trimestris seed of similar vintage, but not Allium aflatunense or Centaurea cyanus. Poppy seed (at least some species) can germinate after much longer. -- Stewart Robert Hinsley |
