Dried up Tulip bulbs

Hi,

How viable are my Tulip bulbs if they are dried up and shrivelled? Is there anything I can do? image

Unfortunately I couldn't plant them out last year so spent a season in storage.

Your advice will be much appreciated.

    Sorry to say I don't think they'll come to anything image.  I'd get some new ones if I were you.image

    Throw them away.

    Yes, bin them - bulbs are not like seeds, they can't be stored for a season.
