Daylily,

Don't sweat it. It's typical that garlic send up sprouts when fall planted. Worst that happens is they the tips of those leaves get frostbitten. But the root system will go semi-dormant, and, come spring, the plants will start to grow again.

In short, you're OK.

Thanks momamamo and gardenlad for putting my mind at ease. you might have guessed that I was worried. We had a dusting of wet snow last night- insulation! Thanks again

You had a dusting of snow in zone 3? We rarely get snow in NYC before January and were Zone 7.
