Two years is pretty long. A lot of tropical stuff has a short viability. But it can't hurt to try.

I can't hurt to try. Some seeds last a very long time, years in fact and others have a very short life. It will cost you nothing but your time, since the seeds were free.:o)

I don't know about the others, but I've had cassia seeds that were viable after four years.

Lucky you!

I love to start stuff from seeds - even old ones - it heightens the challenge. And you have so many that you're bound to get something to sprout.

I hope you'll have fun trying and report back to us on your success rate.

I had some seeds from a yellow blooming tropical (can't remember the name, sorry) that I was told had to be planted immediately. I forgot about them. Found them the other day after almost a year, and they grew.

You can always try. I've had hibiscus seeds grow after 5 years.

You can take a paper towel, write on it the seed names (pemanent marker, please), place several in a row, keep it soaking wet for one day and very damp for several days, and you'll get at least some of them to germinate. While this method is for testing the germination rate, I've planted some of the sprouts with success as well. To be statistically significant you'd have to try more than a few, but you've got nothing to loose.
