I bought some Daffodil and tulip bulbs in Oct 2012 and I never got
round to planting them. They have been on a dry shelf in my garage
which gets a little bit of light from a door and small window. They
look ok, some have sprouted, is it worth me planting them out or do I
need a trip to the garden centre to get "new" ones?


You can't lose anything by planting them! But if you want to take a
belt and braces approach, plus enhance your display, buy some new ones,
too. I'd look at online suppliers and see what their prices are for
bulbs.
