Get off you lazy ass and plant them in the ground ASAP.

i bought a couple hundred bulbs this past fall, thinking i'd have lots of
time to plant them. :-)

well, i got about 50 in the ground (daffys, and crocus), but i still have
all these tulip bulbs in my garage. it's been cool and dry, and they're
in paper bags. i've got some small early irises which have sprouted
already, but the tulips still look dormant.

is there anything i can do with them this year? is it too late to shove
them into the ground? should i grow them in pots, maybe coddle them
indoors for a bit this spring?
or should i just store them in sand or something until next year?
