Connie, Sorry to be so slow posting. I have not had a chance to be on the computer for very long. I received my seeds on Wednesday. Thank you for the great selection and for hosting this swap. Thanks also to everyone that participated. I can't wait to get the seeds planted. Ginger

Welcome to Iowa. What part of the state do you live in? I am in the southwest part of Iowa, in the Loess Hills area. I grow mostly flowers and raise caterpillars into butterflies. If you have questions I will try to answer.

ground cover part shade, ummm wild violets_ host plants winterberyy - berries in late autumn and winter, evergreen. not sure how aggresive the violets are but, for me the winterberry is a ok spreader and doesn't feel the need to take over the country. mother of thyme in the more sunnier spots of the shady area, good nectar plant. ok behind the roses, coral honey suckle, lonicera sempiveris. not sure how aggresive. btw this is the native one and hummingbirds love it. you could also try the native clematis, i think one of them may be a butterfly host plant. depending on where the roses are and how near to the house, you could put up passionvine j+p has some perenial ones. their a host plant for butterfly but they also attract ants i believe. defense against caterpillars. ok i'm all out of ideas.

You lost me. You are, in each section of flooring material, offered two choices, tongue, and grove, naturally. And a third avails itself when a board is cut, a square end. You might consider butting the square end to the reducer. Or you could spend $200+ dollars on a router, table and bits, maybe that would help you devise a plan.
