Given tulip bulbs- Help!No instructions

Hi all,

My lovely friend has brought me back black tulip bulbs from Holland. Can I plant them now, if not how do I store them?

Cheers all

    Normally plant in the Autumn but may as well plant them now and forget about them.

    Yes, you should plant them as soon as possible, to be honest some of my tulips are already flowering, so it is pretty urgent to get them into the ground ASAP.

    You should plant tulip bulbs at least 6 inches deep.
