Storing Gladioli and Other Bulbs

Question

I have tried storing these bulbs in my basement for the past couple of years, but it actually gets too warm down there. Our garage isn’t heated. Is there a way to pack these and store them in the garage, or do they need to ‘breathe’? I’m not sure I have room in my fridge for all of them.

Answer 1

Packing them in cardboard boxes (see article) and storing them in the garage should be okay, provided the area doesn't get too warm. Here is an article that you may find helpful: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/bulbs/bgen/preparing-bulbs-for-winter-how-to-store-bulbs-for-winter.htm
