There is a place in town that grows tulips in greenhouse. they sell cut flowers to many places that make flower arrangements. They get their bulbs from Holland and store them in a cooler. Every week they bring out a new batch of bulbs, plant them in very little dirt, only bottoms are covered. They have to use bulbs of a certain size to get tall enough tulips, 14-16 inches I think. They also sell cut tulips that may be seconds, around 12 inches tall.
The rest they pitch. They grow tulips up until about mother's day.
So to answer your question. It really doesn't matter when you plant them. If the ground is cold, they will remain dormant. If you store them in a cool place, plant them in the spring. I would plant them now, that way they will be early bloomers.
BYW this past spring we went to the tulip place and they gave us the shorter tulips. We planted about 400 of them on a sandy hill side in gravel pit. We call it tulip hill. Be posting pics this spring if they blooms.
We planted hundreds of surprise lilies on another hill side, surprise hill
Planted hundreds of rose of Sharon's on another hill side, rose hill.

It was a fairly typical Northern Ireland farm where the main enterprise was dairying but some pigs, poultry and sheep were also kept. Potatoes were grown for sale and oats were grown to be used for cattle and horse feeding. Up to about 1958 the dairy cows were fed hay with some turnips and after that grass silage was the main winter feed. That same year was the last in which flax was grown on the farm. Flax provided the fibre which w
