I bought these Dutch iris bulbs in b&q (I know I know I only went in for compost)

it says in the packaging plant March to May - grand. But everywhere I look it says autumn planting, December at the latest. Do I shove them in and hope for the best??

Dutch Iris Sapphire Beauty Flower bulb, Pack of 15 | DIY at B&Q

Iris Sapphire Beauty is easy to grow, it’s blooms are extremely pretty, a rich blue with pale blue markings on the falls and a distinctive yellow mark on each petal. Ideal as a cut flower and in beds and borders.

😂Fair point. Does anyone know if they are labelled incorrectly l? Has anyone successfully planted iris bulbs in spring?
