Is it the inner packet only then?   My assumption is that BROEPUS is the wholesaler's code number.

Might be BROccoli Early PUrple Sprouting ???

Just exactly what I thought, that it is some Broccoli if it's big enough round brown seeds.

..and 205P might mean they were packeted in 2005. Should still be viable.
