Old Hyacinth Bulbs

Embarrassed as I forgot to plant a gift of a tub of three hyacinth bulbs last year. Just found them on a shelf in the shed. They would have had a lot of sunlight on them through the window. Is it best to just chuck 'em?

Put them in a bed in the garden. They'll grow on there no problem. I have done it many times.

agreed, unless they're turned into a big pile of papery leaves.

No, not quite papery leaves yet, still some body to them. Thanks I'll give them a go so.
