The expiration date really is the expiration date NOT one year old seeds. 
I think my oldest is 25 years old from a Texas mountain laurel seed.
It is now growing in my yard I collected the seed in 1987 from the wild.

Up here, if you clear some trees and brush in the right place, old blackberry seeds will germinate. I've read that some of the seeds may be 150 - 200 years old.
