Hi Ellen,
 
I'm not a master gardener, but I noticed your post looking for
interesting varieties of garlic.  One type that I've really enjoyed is
"ajo rojo," a heritage variety that I believe came to this area with
Spanish conquistadors.  There's a farmer, John Rueb, who sells his at
the Santa Cruz River Farmers' Market.

I need a source for a ground cover called
"Lippia" [botanical name = phyla nodiflora]
I have an area in our yard with heavy traffic/wear, full sun/part
shade.  I need actual plants, not seeds, for this ground cover.  Can
anyone out there help?

I was told the best time to plant cacti is in the summer.  Is it too
late to do so at this time?  Now?

Thanks

Gino

Does anyone know of some interesting varieties of garlic that would
grow well in Tucson? And where to find such garlic?

I once tried some homegrown garlic in Oregon that was delicious and
nothing like I'd ever tasted store bought.
