What is a sedum roof?
A sedum roof is a living carpet. Sedums are low-growing succulent plants with thick fleshy leaves and stems - particularly suitable for growing in the inhospitable conditions found on a roof.
Plants on a sedum roof must withstand periods of low rainfall, strong drying winds, heat and sun...all in the minimum of growing medium.
They have shallow roots and absorb morning dew to rehydrate during extended sunny and windy periods of drought.
What are the benefits of a sedum green roof?
Reduction in storm-water run off- it can absorb 70 - 100% rainfall.
Reduced heat loss in winter
Reduction of internal building temperature during summer
Reduction in energy costs
Attractive to look at and beneficial for wildlife
Improved sound insulation of the building
Plants remove carbon dioxide and absorb pollutants from the air
Evaporation from the vegetation cools the air around the roof
Protects the roof from UV light - increasing life span
