One of you lovely people gave me these seeds some time back, like maybe a year or so, but I cannot remember what they are! I'm guessing this is either Shawn's or Corinne's writing. And I'm guessing it is a type of pepper. Or tomato. If it's a pepper, I'm guessing it's from Shawn. What do you think? Kind of a fun mystery, isn't it?!!!

My writing. Must have been quite a while ago because I don't even remember that notepaper!!way more than 2 years, Mary! definitely a pepper seed, but I wouldn't bet any money that they will germinate!

Not my writing. It is too neat to be mine LOL. I used to write neat until the RA hit me.

They look like a pepper seed. It definitely is my handwriting and they are at LEASt about 2 yrs old..at least. I haven't had that notepaper for YEARS! I'd be amazed if they germinated.

They are pepper seeds. But pretty old ones. Old pepper seeds tend to flatten out and look like parchment. I'd say these are over 3 years old. I disposed of a bunch of seeds like this last year. My guess is these could be as much as five years old. The ones I got rid of last year weren't that flat.

I’ve only ever been AG’ing since late December 2013, and I didn’t find you guys for a while, and even then my first seed xchange was long after that, at least a year, so I figure they’ve gotta be younger than that. At least somewhat. I’ve been meaning to try germinating them in a paper towel so I can monitor them.
