Amarylis belladonna in the Pacific Northwest

So i scored a couple of Amarylis belladonna bulbs in the latests BX. Do I have a snowball’s chance of hell growing them in the ground in Portland, Oregon? I read the wiki information on them and some say to plant at neck level and some say to plant deeper. My inclination is to plant deeper since that would provide a bit of frost protection. I do have a frost free greenhouse but what I read says they don’t bloom as well in pots. I can give them good drainage in the garden.
