You should have no trouble keeping them on the bed. I mean I usually recommend a diameter 1/5 of height so that the part isn't likely to fall over but you can exceed that ratio. here I see 20mm diameter and 300mm tall which is a bit of 1:10 ratio.
1) Put them on the center of the bed.
2) Are these PLA? If so, make sure bed is 60C (should be) and use glue and thin&spread the glue with a wet tissue. This makes it more dilute and more even (thinner is better for getting parts to stick well).
