Well, I just put some 2001 rose mallow seeds into soil (this was one of the first seed packet I received at my first seed swap - I guess I was holding on to these as a reminder of how I got into the world of hoarding plants & seeds). We'll see if these sprout after all these years.
I also have other older seeds which need to be sown. I think I'll throw these out on the soil and see what comes up (the front bed is bare since foundation plants were removed for leveling).
Woofie, the salpiglossis, schizanthus, & nicotiana you sent me germinated
but they may not survive since we are having another warm winter.
