| I want to plant garlic bulbs in my garden over the winter so they're ready for spring... when can I expect to see them at my local nursery? |

| As the general concensus is to plant garlic about October if you haven't seen any you probably should try to order from an on-line source. You might find more help here: http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/allium/ |

Although it is a little late to order seed garlic, Filaree Farm is a good great source. Lots of different varieties to chose from. Be sure to select a softneck variety, not hardneck which don't do well this far south.

| Is it too late to plant cloves now and let them over-winter? Approx. when would they be ready to harvest? |

You know what, I decided to keep doing things wrong. I bought some garlic from Walmart's grocery store and planted them over the weekend.
