I've been behind the eight ball on getting all my winterization chores done this fall and I have not planted my spring bulbs yet. I'm wondering if it's too late. The ground hasn't frozen yet even though we live in the northern Rockies. Worth a shot?
So long as the ground is not frozen, it should be just fine to plant them. They do need a certain number of weeks in the ground to fully develoope, so they may be a little later to bloom than you would expect, but that should be OK.

I am from a tropical country so please bear with my curiosity. What happens to those bulbs when the ground freezes? They just sort of hibernate?
Many bulbs have to go through a cold cycle before they will sprout. That's how you can "force" some bulbs - by deliberately freezing (or chilling) them, then warming them again when you want them to sprout.
