Ok, I do tend to procrastinate a little, but near the Mekong in 1973 I
gathered some seeds of a particularly beautifully foliaged bush. They have
been neglected in my shaving kit all these years.

Is there any hope? I've got a very small greenhouse and a seed starting mat
from Charlie's Greenhouse. Is it worth a try, or are seeds that old better
in the compost heap?

I'd say give it a whirl and let us know how it goes. Just think, if
you have 50 seeds and only three germinate and two survive to grow
into bushes, you'll have something unique and special. Good
germinating to you. Keep us informed!!
