Wrap the bulbs up in damp paper towel. Then put them in a plastic bag and keep them in the refrigerator, make sure they stay moist.Helpful Reply -

Hi, in a brown paper bag, little soil ,just the bulb. The bag will keep it dark and the paper will absorb any moisture so no rot/mildew. Replant, water and feed for a new flower. Repeat. Lasts forever.Helpful Reply -

I leave the bulbs in the pot they bloomed in. I put them in the darkest coolest part of my basement, and bring them up when I want them to bloom again. This has worked for years.Helpful Reply -
