Shep - you might post this over on the Florida Gardening forum for recommendations from local growers.

In theory you can grow any variety you wish as it is the very different planting times you have to be concerned with rather than the variety.

That said, the University of Florida recommends the following large fruit varieties for growing in Central FL:

Celebrity
Heat Wave II
Better Boy
Beefmaster
Amelia
Southern Star
BHN640

Dave
