You've likely already come across this article, but I'll link to it anyway, since it covers Texas and Florida:
Warm Winter Growing
Unfortunately, many vendors seem to be sold out. I'll be calling a few on Monday to see if they have one or two bulbs left.

I ordered my garlic way back in the summer when everything was in stock at Filaree Garlic Farm. I seem to recall the product descriptions mentioning which ones were more heat tolerant, so I tried to go with hardnecks that were listed as heat tolerant, and a few softneck in case the hardneck didn't work out. I went back through my email and found my sales receipt, and these are what I ordered: Metechi (Marbled PS)
Thai Purple (Turban)
Music (Porcelain)
Island Rocambole (Rocambole)
Early Red Italian (Artichoke)
Silver White (Silverskin)
And thank you for that article. I don't think I actually came across that in my original research. That will be very helpful in helping me decide what to plant if what I got this year does not produce the results I want.
