Growing English Bluebells?

I already ordered 80 English bluebells. I have read we are too warm where I live, but I want to try. I am in Gainesville, Georgia. We have 2 acres with heavy woods and some lake front. Is it possible I can make a go of these? My husband is from Scotland and really wanted the bluebells.

My gardening books don't even agree on this plant, if you ordered them, plant them and try. They grow best in zones 4-9, in the spring. They don't like heat, but if you plant them early enough, you may have good results.

You live in either 7B or 8A gardening zone. According to the Breck's website, it is suited for zones 5-8. I am not sure how much light your property has or how well drained the soil is, so here is the link to the website: m.brecks.com/.../English_Bluebells

I'm from the UK, I live in Atlanta . I ordered Bluebell bulbs in the fall. They are growing well, but i did put a lot of organic matter down several months before I planted them
