They usually start coming up as soon as the weather gets warm for a while. Here in Z6/7, mine start coming up now and usually bloom in mid to late April. In Philly it may take a little longer.

Last fall, Bonnie (ServantsHeart2003) sent me a Crown Imperial bulb & I planted it (on its side, the directions said) but I don't know if it's going to come up or not, with all the rain we've had this winter! I know that if it does come up this year, I may not get blossoms until next year, but how long does it take for it to realize that it's a plant?
I dug it back up about a month ago, to see if it was doing anything, & it didn't look any different than it did when I planted it! (Maybe I shouldn't have done that?)

I planted my first last fall. I wasn't expecting much. It was a Wal-mart special. But there is about two inches of plant there now.
I have heard/read that they do best when undisturbed, so digging and checking is probably not a good idea.
But I've decided to change the area that I did plant it in and will end up transplanting it sometime this year anyway.

Getting old is the pits. But it sure beats the alternative. My Blog

The good thing about snow is that it makes your yard look just like your neighbors!
