Vince does not say where he lives, so it's hard to give advice. In its 
native Pacific Northwest, I would just plant them in a rough area of the 
garden. This is a very tolerant plant, still known to most of us as 
Dichelostemma capitatum. If the leaves are missing, there's no point in 
watering the corms and they might rot, so they could be put in a pot and 
set aside in a cool place until next fall, when, if surviving, they can 
be planted out.
