    Nope just a dull black piece of medium to heavy duty cloth....like a 4ft x 4ft will do it.
    Put it back far enough to be just outta focus....you all set.

    Odd....out of all the plants I grow, I have only 1 or two roses and they're neglected even! I need more really.

    This is the best I can do for now.

    Thanks, Rick

    Did it come with or w/o the paint?

    Must've been a big sheet for $20, but I've no idea what that stuff costs. I'm going to Lowe's later today, and will try to find someone who knows where it is. :D
