green roof vegetation

Green roof vegetation refers to the plants and soil used on rooftops to create a living, green space. These roofs provide numerous benefits, including improved insulation, reduced energy costs, and enhanced air quality. They help manage stormwater by absorbing rain, which can prevent flooding in urban areas. Common plants used are drought-resistant species, such as succulents, grasses, and small flowering plants. Green roofs not only contribute to biodiversity by providing habitats for wildlife but also improve the aesthetic value of buildings, making cities greener and more visually appealing.
