Bochum, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany - Flat roof with roof greening. Extensive roof greening with low-growing plants such as mosses, succulents, herbs, grasses, sedum plants, which are largely self-sustaining without care. They are well adapted to the extreme site conditions on the roof, extreme temperatures, frost, wind, heat, sun and little water. The roof vegetation insulates in winter and serves as heat protection in summer, thus contributing to energy savings and strengthening the urban climate resilience as a natural air conditioner.
