Hi, there! If I buy your seeds this year but don't get around to planting them for a few years do you suppose they'll still be viable? Thank you !

There is no guarantee with seeds, but I used lettuce and some herb seeds from 4 years ago this year and they grew fine.

Hi there, thank you for your question. This is Lisa, the owner of Zziggysgal. Here's some tips on the best way to keep your seeds viable during long periods of storage.1) Most importantly, do not freeze them because each seed contains a tiny droplet of water at its core to be used upon germination. When water freezes, it expands, damaging/compromising the seeds cell structure.2) The secret to keeping them viable longer is to carefully choose a storage place that does not experience extreme fluctuation in temperatures. 3) I like to place my leftover packets of seed sealed in a good old fashioned mason jar.

I got my seeds from amazon. Planted them in a hanging basket, and nothing came up. So I wrote to Renee's Garden, the lady who provided the seeds. These seeds need to be planted when the temperatures do not go below 50 at night. Renee sent me a new packet of seeds and I planted them in a hanging basket. The temps are warmer now, and they really began to pop up when we got into the 90's. They like moist, humid weather and warm, warm, warm. Mine have not bloomed yet, but they are coming along. If you wish me to contact you when they bloom, just let me know.

I have a friend who grew them in Ohio and they grew well. They are in a regular package with plenty of seeds to start out with. They are a cousin to the morning glory so they go away in the winter totally so collect seed in the fall to reseed in the spring. They reseed the area well and replanting is sometimes not necessary.

Yes, however you'll have to wait until it is fully established, which can take quite some time. As you may have seen in my original review, these seeds are tiny and they instruct you not to cover them, so they will blow away if you don't keep them wet, and some will get munched by birds so order extra.Hope this helps!Billy

Stored properly, they should be viable for two years for sure, perhaps three. If you just leave them in a cupboard, I'd guess 8 months. If you are looking for doomsday storage, there is proper equipment for long-term seed storage, but I know nothing about that.

I bought my seeds two years ago and they are still producing new plants (even if in less percentage) like if I plant 10 seeds 7 plants will grow.I also notice some seeds are more 'durable' then other.

It was about the same time of the year when I planted mine. As I remember it took more or less a week for them to sprout. Almost all of the seed did sprout eventually. Make sure they aren't growing inwardly, towards the ground. I tried to have mine indoors, in southern California, but my gardening skills aren't that great and they ended up dying before I could harvest them. Maybe I'll try again this year. I've seen people planting the seeds indoors and them moving them outside after it sprouts successfully. Hope it helps.

I don't think so, but I don't know for sure. Mine only lived a couple months. I've read where they spread so easily that they turn into a nuisance, but I still want the flower, so I'm going to try planting seeds.

I have had luck with the seeds I have planted so far, and live in the Texas panhandle where we experience high winds coupled with extreme temperature swings. I am sure that with the number of varieties included, you are going to find something that will grow extremely well in your climate. I like to also try to create a micro-climate for other varieties to get them to flourish best.

Hello Bob. I was told by the seller that if I keep the seeds in the freezer and thaw them slowly before I use them they will be good forever. Hence mine are in the freezer. If you buy these, the seller includes an info sheet on all this. Good luck.

I really don't know for sure but I've heard up to 5 years possible longer. I mean they are dried beans, just keep them in a dark cool spot in the house. That's what I'm doing. I've had mine for a few years now and I plan on checking out some of them this year in the garden. I'll find out then how well they do. Good luck to you.

o, please ignore previous answer! I was answering about another packet of seeds I bought. most of these seeds should grow in warmer climates, you would just start planting earlier than you would in a more moderate to cold climate.

Yes you can, mine did great last summer, but died during the winter. I will plant more this Spring and hope it will take hold better and live through the Winter. Good Luck

We recommend planting them within 1 year so saving them for a few months is no problem! Store them in a cool dry place.

I always keep the seeds in the refrigerator and have had no problem with sprouting as long as a year after purchase. I learned the hard way that if seeds are stored in a place that's too warm, it will cause them to fail to sprout even after a few months.

I planted these strawberries in August here in South Florida, but that is not necessarily a good time to plant them because of the extreme heat here in South Florida. Some of my plants died. I would recommend they be planted around this time or spring to get a good root system. Because I lost some of my plants I did not cut off the runners because you can transplant them. They are growing fine now and are just starting to produce strawberries. I started using the Garden Tone for Herbs and Vegetables once a month and this has helped my strawberries grow. I grow them in a raised garden and use organic cow manure and top soil. I also work in a small amount of Lambert potting soil as crazy as this sounds it has worked for me. If you are in a hot climate I would recommend you start them as soon as you have them shipped. I hope this helps you. I learned from trial and error. If I get a good crop I am planning on ordering some more of these strawberries for another raised garden that I have just built.

I dont know how many years you can store them but this is the second year I am using these seeds and they are still growing.
