Norfolk , United Kingdom

I am read that it is ok to plant spring flowring bulbs as late as december as long as there is no ground frost, would you agree it is therefore ok for me to plant my bulbs now to ensure a good display in spring?
Thank you!

Get them in as quickly as possible - the only ones you might have little success with are daffodils, which really prefer to be in during August, but plant everything immediately!

Spring flowering bulbs should be in the ground as soon as possible. Whilst December is late for planting they will still do OK. Much better in the ground than in a bag in your garden shed. They may flower a few days later than bulbs planted earlier, but carry on and get them in the ground.
