I recall reading a story in a scientific magazine years ago, that told of the discovery of an ancient urn at an archaeological dig somewhere in Egypt. In the urn where several seeds still intact after centuries of storage. The people studying this find planted some of the seeds as an experiment. To their shock and amazement the seeds grew! Centuries old and neglected, but with the proper environment they still came to life. It is never too late to grow.
