I planted Oxalis L 96/42 2 weeks ago, watered it thoroughly and is now already flowering outside in full sun. The others I was planning to keep them in paper bags. But based on comments from others here I will plant them in pots today and store them totally dry and warm in a shed till some movement is visible.

Can I just keep them inside in their plastic bags for the next couple of months before I plant them since they need a summer dry period? We’re working on a new greenhouse and other new yard projects so I’d prefer to wait if I can.
