Overwintering bareroot daylilies
I have bareroot daylilies and daffodil bulbs that I was unable to get planted this fall. Is there anyway to store them til Spring? I have an unheated shed and my house has a crawl space area.

At this point you need to know just how cold it gets in your shed or other space under the house. Your refrigerator is an option as it won't go below freezing. Plant them as soon as you can work the soil. The first year may be a bit strange, particularly with the the daffodils blooming later but they should straighten out eventually.
