Default Freshly dug up bluebells- how to plant?

A friend has given me a good clump of bluebells, largely now devoid of soil (it dropped off as they were lifted), from her garden. Some have got flowers.

Currently the clump is wrapped in damp newspaper in a flower pot.

How should I plant them? I have appropriate places, but do I just dig 4" holes, drop the bulbs in, back fill and wait for the top growth to die back?

Thanks
