That should have said 'bought'!
best to wait until the weather gets better-where are you located
Refrigerate the bulbs. They'll sprout more rapidly when planted.
Agree with the refrigeration, tulips and spring bulbs need the cold period to bloom in spring. I put mine in my refrigerator drawer ( full of tulips right now lol) , plant when I can, then put the pots outside. Never failed, I live in SC and I'll probably do the pots this weekend and put outside. I found as long as they have a period of cold, replicating winter, they do fine.
Hi Cheryl, here's some help from a youtube video. It says to plant in October - November, but it likely depends on the Region in which you live.
