I ran across a stash of old Drosera seeds tonight.
They are dated 1999.
That would put them at almost 21 years old,
Those seeds are old enough to vote, they're almost old enough to drink.
They've been sitting on a paper plate in a ziploc bag in a basement at room temperature.
I grabbed a few dozen seeds and tossed them into a test tube half filled with distilled water.
So, what's the consensus out there?
Will any germinate after sitting so long in less than optimum conditions?
And how many will germinate, what percentage?
And how long will it take if they do?
