Default Spring Bulb Planting

Hi all. Due to bereavement I haven't had the time or the inclination to do
any gardening, so I haven't planted any spring bulbs yet. So, is it too
late to plant the bulbs now? I've got daffodils, crocus, snowdrops,
anenome, dutch iris, allium.

Thanks

I am sorry for your loss, I know what you mean about not having the
motivation after such an event.

I do hope it isn't too late to put bulbs in - I have still got bulbs
to go in myself, even though I do not have any reasonable excuse for
not having done it already. I would suggest you have little to lose by
planting them now. If you have some good-sized pots and some compost
to hand, putting them in pots might be easier for this season. In
pots, you could move them somewhere they will make a cheerful splash
of colour early in the year, then put them in where they are to go
long-term when they finish flowering.
