During the research I did on gorse I found that most sources said up to 40 years in the soil and they can still germinate. However, in England they had cobblestone roads and then 100 years later when London was bombed gorse seeds started growing where the cobble road had been. So I suppose this shows that a hundred possibly even hundreds of years!
