Default Runner Bean Seeds

In article

says...

I have a vast stock of the glut year of 2009 Runner seed.
What does the team think of using seed of more than one year old ?




In 2006 we were away for 6 weeks through the
summer, and all my Broad beans "matured" and
turned brown. Collected masses of seeds whcih
I used for the next 5 years, with virtually
100% germination. Sadly I had to buy seed this
year!
