Extensive green roofs are by their very nature designed to be low maintenance.
Our Extensive green roofs are created using sedum, grown in Yorkshire.

Sedums or stonecrops are evergreen succulents popularly used by gardeners to create beautiful rock gardens and borders and also as pictorial displays in parks. They are self-generating, drought resistant and capable of withstanding extremes of climate, which makes them particularly suitable for roofs.
Sedum will thrive in a shallow, free draining substrate and their dense, low growth will grow rapidly to cover the surface of the soil or substrate in a blanket of foliage.
They flower from early summer through to autumn in shades of pink, purple, yellow and white. Needing very little attention and no mowing or cutting back, they give excellent foliage colour and texture and are attractive to all kinds of insects and birds.
The mixture of sedums on your Green Roofs Naturally extensive roof will ensure varying flowering periods and colours throughout the growing seasons. The leaves of the plants will also change in colour and aspect, throughout the year.
Sedum plants will ‘die back’ in the autumn and winter and produce new vibrant growth in spring and summer.

There are all sorts of alternative planting options you can consider for your roof, from wildflowers to chamomile, herbs, shrubs and a variety of mixed planting.
We will be very happy to offer help and advice to meet your particular requirements.
