I sowed a load of old seed in spring last year (it'd been sitting round for
months in very unsuitable conditions) - probably around april - and they ALL
came up...so I don't think it's going to be a problem. I sowed them in B&Q
peat-free multipurpose in a seed tray with a light covering of compost and
didn't water too much. They were in the greenhouse to start though...
