You can always try a few on damp kitchen paper a week or so before you intend to sow them, just to check viability. Mr Flum and his Dad once found a tin of elderly seed packets which had belonged to Grandad. Many of them came. They had an allotment at the time so gave over a small bed to the old stuff, just to see. The brassica family fared best - we had some cracking turnips - golden ball, really hot & spicy!
