Love the color! We got this for our new home. Not only will it provide much needed shade but it will make the back yard festive. The material is slightly stretchy, allowing it to be pulled equally tight in all 3 directions. Stitching and materials are heavy duty and it came with all the needed  hardware. We watched an informative tutorial video from Colourtree on how to install it. Cant wait until we move and can get this up and our patio furniture underneath.
