What will happen? I never got around to planting them in the early spring,

Why not? Seeds, if properly stored, will last many years, with a
slight decrease in germination percent each year. I have successfully
planted 10 year old seeds numerous times....


I've read (in various places) that onion seeds are an
exception to this and should be used when fresh. I've no
personal experience with it though.
