But, note that this isn't a good time to order roses. Many vendors have stopped shipping for the season. They open again in the fall for ordering with shipment the following spring. Flower Carpet roses are carried in many local garden centers, although it is also late in the season for many of them to have remaining stock. You might want to call around to see if any near you carry them and have any stock remaining. I would think that the garden centers in GA start carrying potted roses in April.

Stanton, Mashland, Karastan (higher end) are wonderful products, and I would go wool. However, Smart Strand is a good medium priced option. Agree with Elizabeth B…the padding makes a huge difference. I always recommend SmartStep. It has a waterproof barrier which keeps spills (and other liquids…(woof, woof) from seeping into the pad. Ever tried to remove a stain from a rug, think you have accomplished it and two days later it is back? It is because the culprit is in the pad and not the rug. If. the pad needs to be seemed, have the seem duct taped or as I have always called the product DuckTape.

Who makes and what is the color of that beautiful hall carpet!!??!!?!? I love carpet and everything you’ve done there!!

The lovely arched elements could have a repeat if you want, like this rug's soft pattern. Also a shag is casual like the sofa.... ? I agree with cawaps about liking diamond-type rather than patchwork - too casual for architecture of the room.
