After searching high and low for an area rug with red flowers that would go well in my Aloha themed den I was happy to find this rug.  Although somewhat hesitant to select something with such a large pattern and only 1/4 inch thick I decided to give it a try.  So glad I did.  The colors are more vibrant than the online image.  The rug does not have a non skid back so a pad it needed to prevent slippage. Because the rug is tightly rolled it does not lay flat right out of the packaging but I put my hand weights on the corners and that has helped.
