Just put them in the fridge and keep them from getting too moist or dry. Too dry and they will shrivel up, too moist and they mildew. So in a paperbag works well. Several websites also suggest vermiculite. If you are storing for longer than a couple of months, you may wish to try that. But for a couple of months, I have had good luck with that for my amaryllis bulbs. <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.extension.umn.edu/distribution/horticulture/DG1117.html">http://www.extension.umn.edu/distribution/horticulture/DG1117.html</a> <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.gardenexpress.com.au/index.html?target=growing_guide/forcing_bulbs/forcing_bulbs.html&lang=en-us">http://www.gardenexpress.com.au/index.html?target=growing_guide/forcing_bulbs/forcing_bulbs.html〈=en-us</a> <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.urbanext.uiuc.edu/bulbs/planting.html">http://www.urbanext.uiuc.edu/bulbs/planting.  more
