I don't know for sure, but what I would do is, since the foliage is still green, set them where they can get some sun for the next week. Seems to me they need to continue to build up as much as they can to bloom next year.

You don't indicate you are going to pot them up before swapping. If you are going to swap them one bulb at a time without potting them, I would take the whole clump with the soil attached and divide them as you swap them. The person getting the bulb should plant it as soon as he gets home to let it continue to feed the bulb for next season. Al

No, I was not going to pot them. The most I was going to do was break up the more massive clumps (~ 12 bulbs), and probably not til the day of the swap. I figured they would stay "fresher" that way. I figured I should stand them up in a plastic tub, and not let them dry out completely.
