OK, confession time. Stuff came up last fall, and I didn't get my 2 cent snow crocus bulbs planted in the front lawn as planned. They spent the winter in the crisper drawer of the garage fridge. Although I did manage to get a few handfuls of leftover daffs planted this spring, the crocus bulbs are still languishing. They look fine -- not getting dried out or lightweight, and no, I don't have any fruits or vegs in that fridge.

We're getting near the end of daffodil season (azaleas are blooming), so crocus season is past. Is it better to plant them out anyway (could even trench them in a border and retrieve them for replanting in fall), or should I leave them in the refrigerator to take their chances?

Help!
