What if it´s past the best time to plant bulbs in my area?

Don't Wait To Plant Until Next Year

If you miss the optimal planting time, don't wait for spring or next fall. Bulbs do not store as well as seeds and they will not survive out of the ground indefinitely. Even if it's January or February, plant them and take your chances. You can always force them indoors or plant them in pots and refrigerate them until spring.
