Theres' no harm in trying Scarlet. As gardeners we live on (in) hope. I have a box of old seeds, some are from the early 2000's. Admittedly they are to be thrown away, but I've just not done it. May have a random seed scatter, but the problem is "where"!

I empty the really old packets into a jar, shake them up, and scatter them on any available ground. It doesn't matter if they do nothing, I've given them their freedom and its for them to decide what to do. There have been some surprises.- whichI like!

Resowed some rotted DFB. I left them too wet, a usual mistake on my part.

I pricked out some tomato seedlings, Summer Cider, Chocolate Cherry, Britain Breakfast and some Italian one something Fiorantino. I know nothing about these, but at least I know which are which, unlike the previous ones 5hat all got mixed up with no labels.
