Old Seed Question

Pawleys Island, SC

I found some old passiflora seeds this week. They are probably from 2010-2011. Is there any hope of them germinating?

What type of Passiflora are they? Some will only germinate when really fresh and I've had others that are 4 or 5 years old, and they germinate.

Thanks Mark, the are caerulea, edulis and alata.

Sorry that got sent twice, I thought it didn't work the first time. Your Edulis and Caerulea may have a chance, probably the Edulis more so, but it the other seed is true Alata, it probably will not come up as those are one of those seeds that after a few weeks, never seem to germinate. Soak them in warm water over night and give them a try.

Thanks Mark, I will try them. I have nothing to lose at this point.
