Here's a very handy site for questions we all have or have had about what will grow here in Central Florida.
www.floridata.com
It's a Univ of Fla site, and very throrough. Takes a little effort to find what you want, but not much! I pretty much learned early on that, if what I was asking about didn't seem to be on the site, then I'd probably be wise to NOT plant it!
