I've heard it might be tricky. Is it true? What is the best way to that? It's this year's plant. No flowers yet.
If the bulbs are still firm, not mushy, they should be fine. If you are in a zone that is past the last frost, go ahead and plant them soon. The bulbs need several months of cold in order to bloom again. You're lucky - I have to put my dug-up bulbs in the refrigerator all winter because our winters are not cold enough. Enjoy your tulips, daffodils or whatever they are! Happy gardening!
I did the same with daff bulbs and I just planted them in a pot. They have come up every year since.
nothing ventured, nothing gained gained, I would still plant them, but maybe start them in pots indoors now to see if they’ll come back...if the don’t, you can purchase replacements
Force them inside for now, once finished flowering plant outside.
Plant them as soon as possible. I did that once and they bloomed beautifully.
As long as they are still firm, I would plant them up in pots. If you are not yet frost free, water the pots and leave them in your garage for awhile longer. Early April or so, put them outside, keep them watered and you should see growth and then flowers. Good luck!
As long as they aren't squishy but still firm they're fine. Plant them now. ♥
