I live in Ohio- the weather is always going from warm to cold during the fall.

Plant them now. They need the low light of winter to prepare to bloom. Water them well, and make sure the pointy side is up.

now is the time to plant any bulbs.. whether you have a frozen winter or not. remember, once bulbs are done blooming in the spring, the bulbs do not like water on them in the summer, so plant them in a place that will not get watered on when they are done blooming. Or plan on getting new next year..

I'm in NE Ohio and anytime in October would be great. We're getting down into the 40s at night now so find a nice Indian Summer day and go to it.

Regardless of the temperature, it is fall and all spring bulbs should be planted now... it is the amount of time they spend below ground and the low light of fall and winter, not the temperature, that should be considered.

I live in a similar zone. I plant mine early-mid fall and they come up in spring. I've been doing this for years and have had no problems. good luck

You should plant them after the first freeze... or wait till spring time. You could plant them in last March early April.
