what to do about these bulbs that have just arrived in the post
in Plants
Hi there
I ordered some spring bulbs online and they've only just arrived- on the last date they said they would despatch by Is there any point in attempting to plant them?
Its annoying because over a week ago I emailed to cancel the order and didn't hear back from them, so I cancelled well before they despatched. I know I have legal rights from Distance Selling Regulations but I thought I'd ask you all if there's any point in even having a go with them now. Thing is, I won't get a chance if I do try til a week's time anyway.

I've planted daffs after xmas and they've been OK. I planted some last week. They might be a bit late, but they catch up usually.
I'm just about to plant my tulips today so I would just plant them soil is still quite warm in the midlands.
I think we have only had three cold snaps to date

Should be no problem - just plant them and let nature do the rest! Enjoy the show in spring.
