Old liatris bulbs - still viable?

While moving items in the garage this weekend, I came across two package of white liatris bulbs that had been hidden. I believe that both of them were from this summer. Any idea if they will grow if I plant this this spring - that is provided that I don't missplace them again?

IF the ground is workable plant them now!

Not a chance that I could plant them in the garden now, but I could put them in pots. Should I leave them outside?

Pots outside in a protected area. A garage, next to the SOUTH side of your house for instance. Can't say if they will make it but it's worth a try.

It's worth a shot. I've found spring bulbs that I'd 'misplaced' and potted them up. I transplanted them into the garden once the soil could be worked and they were good to go next year.

Thanks guys
