Don't give up, I've been growing one variety that I bought in 1990 at 
a discount because it was packaged for 1988. While we have very low 
humidity, if the seeds are stored in a dry dark place, there's a good 
chance that you will get some germination. I've found that Chiles are 
good for at least 5 years if collected and dried properly.
