How long until you can plant them? Are we talking days or weeks?

In a bucket or watter if they are bare rooted.

Sorry, Vinny, I'm going to disagree with you about putting them in water until you can plant them as this will trigger them into growth prematurely.
Give them a good soak a couple of hours before you plant, otherwise keep them cool and in their dormant state.

If he is planting them in a couple of days I would have thought their root tips would die and shrivel if left.? I can't imagine much root growth in a couple of days anyway, but i can imagine the plants roots re-absorbing a wee a bit of water
