Oh, right -- I forgot that your garlic would just keep growing (more or less, at least) during the winter ! So the cold temps that you had last winter weren't a problem, then, apparently ? Now that I think about it, the temps that you had were probably a lot like what we have in the early spring, when my garlic is already up. In zone 7a Arlene's conditions may be much more like yours than mine; I totally agree with checking with the Extension Service or a local gardener that grows garlic!
