Storing tulips over the Summer

I got a bunch of tulip bulbs from a local landscaping company. They had been planted & bloomed then dug up and discarded. It's too late to plant them now, how should I store them over the summer in order to plant them in the fall. There are too many to store in the fridge.

Hi :D

Definitely NOT in the fridge! Have a look at this link

If it helps at all... I store my [url=https://www.oakvilleshops.com/The_Flower_Place.php]flower[/url] bulbs in the attic. Never in the fridge as they need ventilation and a dry atmosphere otherwise you run the risk of mold.
