Pumpkin seed germinated! I'm surprised that 15-year-old pumpkin seed is still viable. I saved these seed from a pumpkin that grew in my garden in 2007.

Archeologists are growing seeds from thousands of years ago.

It's all about the plants health at the time of seeding and storage conditions. Also in modern times, whether or not the plant has been modified to not produce seeds, as often these plants will create infertile seeds.
