If they have been forced, they can be planted in the ground. But in Zone 7, you may have trouble getting them to chill over the winter. They need at least 7-8 weeks of temps below 45 to bloom the following year. These articles will help:

How do I take care of the bulbs from florist plants to plant in the fall?

Care for them as you would a houseplant until the leaves have yellowed and dies back. Make sure to place them in bright light and water when the top of the soil is dry to the touch. Once the leaves die back, place the plant in a dark dry place. Then, when you are ready to plant the bulbs, remove them from the soil and plant them outside.
