Bulb query

Hi 
I would really appreciate some advice. I have just received some Nerine Bowdenii bulbs in the post and as the autumn is well behind us I wonder whether its too late to plant them out? concerned about the frost and huge amount of rainfall we are experiencing.

    Mine are in large pots of very gritty compost. They are outside getting soaked as we speak. The flowers have finished, but the leaves come up in Spring, then die down in summer, and then they flower.  If you have the bulbs, I would plant them.

    Basically.  Bulbs, bare roots etc.  Provided the ground is not frozen, then plant them out. or you can cover with soil/compost in suitable pots/containers.
