Green Roofs

• Coronets Wildflower turf is ideally suited for green roofs.

• Soil-less turf, so light weight compared to conventional turf and many other alternatives.

• The wildflower meadow plants used require little maintenance and need cutting only once a year.

• The soil levels needed on the roof are minimized and so keep the roof weight down.

• Because the plants thrive on a lack of fertility the roof environment suits them well, as this can be easily managed and there are a number of varieties within the mix that are drought tolerant, again minimizing maintenance.

• The diversity of plants in the turf encourage insect and animal life, adding to the ‘green’ nature of the roof and the interest to be gained from it.

• The development of the grasses and flowers in the mix and the strength with which they grow help to give excellent insulation properties both in hot or cold conditions.

"Just a note to say how much pleasure we've been getting from our Wildflower Meadow roof.Its a slow firework of pinks at the moment and we can see other colours coming. Wonderful!"
