Whew! Well, you have been through a lot of turbulent weather in the past few weeks ! But this does not mean you cannot now plant your bulbs for next spring... dig loose your planting spots well, but do not plant too deeply, just enough to fully cover the top of the bulbs. I like to plant several bulbs together, creates a more full show in the spring. Pile over some loose branches and leaves for insulation from winter's frost.

A bit late but not too late for Seatttle area. Go ahead and plant them with proper hole (3 to 4 inch deep), cover it with soil and some insulation on top (peat moss or leaves) that will need to be removed in the early spring. Enjoy the daffodills in spring or early summer. Taking small risk this way is better than messy ways of storing it or other indor solutionmand there i schance that you may forget to remember them again.

It shouldn't be to late to plant them. Plant them about 4" deep and after you cover them with dirt put about 6" of leaves on top of that. They should be fine. Just remember in the spring to rake the leaves off so they can get some of the heat from the sun.

no it's not too late ...because daffs are dormant in the winter ...put them down with 2-3 inches of soil on top and just as spring is about to spring they push up--an exciting time of life....
