I have Big Max pumpkins, pink banana squash, spaghetti squash, Thai hot peppers and ornamental corn, can send plenty of all. I'd like Cherokee purple tomatoes, snake gourds, space master cucumbers, sugar baby melons and fun warty gourds. I also have some sunflowers that got real tall, I use them for bird seeds and hamster food, not sure what kind they are but are gray striped and big, have plenty of those. Let me know.

We're close with our plan, though probably not what you want. We built into a southern facing slope so the lower level is completely finished with a guest room and bath downstairs, along with the exercise room, craft room and a lower level garage and workshop. Upstairs is 2 bedrooms and another bath and a powder room. We have the breakfast nook in the same space as the kitchen and family room but the kitchen touches an exterior wall with a window over the sink. We have a combo mud room/laundry room and a study for DH. Our DR is shorter than yours though but is open to the living room library. Above the main level is only attic space. So it really is a 2 BR ranch with a finished basement. But our house doesn't look like a ranch. We spent about 7 years working on the design with our architect. Library Dining room from library

I have quite a few daphnes, and I highly recommend odora 'Zuiko Nishiki' for your zone. Amazing fragrance & foliage that holds up well in the cold. I've found that odoras are marginal, and I had an alba that struggled in the cold & finally died that year. 'Eternal Fragrance' can smell wonderful and sometimes waft under the right conditions (warm spring evening) but it is a fantastic tough plant that can even be pruned to old wood & bounce right back. Magnolia grandifloras are evergreen & have amazing flowers. My 'St Mary' is a real beauty, both in flower & foliage. I'm pretty crazy about English roses. 'Evelyn' and 'Jude the Obscure' are a couple of the most intense perfumes. Aaaah, Fragrant...every time I see your wieseneri, I die a little inside;). Want. So. Bad.
