A green roof system is an extension of the existing roof which helps create a living space in a previously unused area. Green roof development involves the creation of "contained" green space on top of a human-made structure. This green space could be below, at or above grade, but in all cases the plants are not planted in the "ground'. Green roofs can provide a wide range of public and private benefits. The following products can be used to create a green roof.
