Well, there is always a chance :-) I have no idea how long they keep,

I will! )

Depends on how many you have.


Don't know......*toddles off*......about a hundred or so, I'd say.

If anybody more knowledgable than me (that'll be everybody in here!) would
like to try to grow them too I'll gladly send you some.
