Bulb storage.

UrbanVixen

We planted a good few daffodil, tulip and crocus bulbs before December. Between weather and a few other distractions we did not get them all planted.

So, we now have a few bags of bulbs which are in good condition but which are probably too late to plant out.

Can we store them for next autumn ? If so, what is the right way to store them ? We have not had this situation before so any advice would be appreciated.

OP just plant them, now is not too late, they will flower and take a little longer than normal to settle in. They won't survive being dormant for a year.

If I saw a pre packed daffodils now at a massive discount like 20cents a bag which I have in the past I would buy a load and get planting.

I missed a bag of daffodils last winter. Found them the end of January and stuck them into the ground. They were probably the best flowering daffs in the garden last spring, even if they flowered in the back end of the season.
