I received seeds of Mozark from Bill Jeffers last season that were saved from 1964 by a professor from a university (thats what it said on package anyway) and I was able to start 3 plants out of 15 seeds - I was really amazed -

Could be the way they were stored, could be the way they were saved - could be a hoax ! Who knows -

Also, I have started seeds of "Maryann" from Carolyn that were saved in 1992? -
