Snake's Head Fritillaries

Hi Everyone,
I ordered a large amount of Snake's Head Fritillary bulbs back in April
because there was a deal on. No specific delivery date or month was
given just that they would arrive in good time for planting.
I thought that that 'good time' was about Oct-Now. Obviously they
haven't arrived or I wouldn't be writing about it!
When is the best time/way to plant these bulbs?
Company ordered from was Thompson & Morgan. Not used them before but
definitely heard of them, assumed they were reputable.
Grateful for any advice/tips.
Jess
Nothing to do with planting time, but be aware that Lily Beetle loves
Fritillaria meleagris! If you live in an area which has (or will soon have)
lily beetle, then as soon as they have finished with your lilies they will
start eating these.
