Sue, those seeds were in the fridge, dry, for a couple of years. As soon as I added the water/peroxide mix, some germinated in a week. I don't know what that means as far as them being dormant, but it was quick germination. I almost never have them take a month to germinate, and the fridge isn't always a constant temp. It is just my experience, and I'd never put them in there for a month with moisture without checking them every few days.
