While cleaning out my garage, I came across a plastic bag with a note dated 1992. attached to the note was an envelope dated 1957. It had rose seeds in it and the name "Purple rose of ------". I couldn't make out the last word. They were from my grandfather.

Is there any chance at all that these seeds could be viable? I read about peroxide and water treatment, putting them in the fridge for months etc. Anyone who has a thought, other than throw them away, I'd like to hear it.

Thanks
