If stored properly in a cool dry place, about how long will D.hercules last for if they are known to be viable seeds?

Thank you:

There are reliable reports of Drosera seeds having been found in a cupboard after ~20 years or more that still germinate.
How long are you planning on storing them?

Everything happens for a reason. Sometimes the reason is that I make bad decisions.

Hopefully not more than a few months. I potted some up and want to wait and see if they are viable or not and then send to you.

A few months will be nothing as long as they stay dry. Just put them in your fridge and they'll be fine.
