, Germany, North Rhine-Westphalia, Mülheim an der Ruhr - Flat roof is prepared for green roofing. Here, a separating flow is laid on the first bedding, the drainage layer. This is followed by the substrate layer. Extensive roof greening with low-growing plants such as grape and sedum plants, which largely maintain themselves without care. They are well adapted to the extreme site conditions on the roof, extreme temperatures, frost, wind, heat, sun and little water. Roof vegetation provides insulation in winter and heat protection in summer, acting as a natural air conditioning system to help save energy and strengthen urban climate resilience.
