     they may grow during the warm season ok, but the   
   real test is if they'll survive through a winter   
   without too much fuss and bother.  some varieties   
   are more cold hardy than others.   
      
     if you're prepared to baby them (lift them after   
   they've bulbed and died back) and store them properly   
   you can increase the varieties you grow and some may   
   be worth it, but i tend to not do things like that   
   much.  beans, peas and garlic are plenty enough and   
   the garlic i only lift and store because we want to   
   have it through the winter and next spring.  right   
   now i have some green garlic i need to dig up so   
   we can eat it.  :)
