A lot of gardeners around here seem to plant them in May. They did fine for us both ways, so maybe there's a fair bit of leeway with the planting time. Good luck with your gardening. Rebecca Hi Sarah,
We’ve sometimes planted them on the Winter Solstice (I’ve heard that the first waning moon after the Winter Solstice is a good time to plant them.), but have also tried putting them in a month or so earlier than that.

Good luck with your gardening.

I've read lots of conflicting suggestions and am a bit confused. What time of year do you plant your onions and garlic? I’ve read lots of conflicting suggestions and am a bit confused.
