storing bulbs and corms

18 years ago

i ordered some dwarf fruit trees and got a free gift, yay! they sent me some bulbs and corms for windflowers (unspecified...grecian perhaps), blue poppy anemones, triplet lilies and oxalis deppei. i'm planting the oxalis in a large pot since there aren't many bulbs and i think they'll do well overwinter in the house, but i have a question about the others. what should i do with them? it's far too late/too early to put them in the ground, but i don't want them drying out or cooking in my garage or house all summer long (we're in the upper 90s/low 100s already). how can i store them until proper planting time? should i put them in the refrigerator or would they be fine in a dark corner in the house (temp about 78-80)? we have a good abou of humidity, not enough to bring about mold, but not arid. any suggestions are appreciated. they were free gifts with my tree purchases, but i hate to waste good plants, or potential plants. thanks a lot all!
