Yan, it may be slightly late for you to plant, but if you get the garlic before your ground is frozen I'd say go ahead and put it in ... it's really pretty much the same as growing daffodils and tulips (if you have any experience with that), and even way up here in the Michigan Upper Peninsula I've planted in late October, although this year I got a little more organized and planted around the beginning of the month. Last year I ordered some garlic from Forever Yong Farms and was very impressed with the quality of the bulbs that I received, so I don't think you'll be disappointed with what they send you. (DrDawg/Ken also sells garlic for eating and planting, but sells out VERY quickly!) Like anything else, growing garlic can be a bit of a learning curve -- for quite a few years I couldn't bring myself to believe that it would actually work for me to plant it in the fall, but even after the very bad winter of 2013-2014 (where we had very extended periods of time where the temp was below 0 degrees F and the frost was down about 6 feet in the ground), every plant came up in the spring for me! I hope you enjoy growing it as much as I do
