Pebbles
50-100mm beech pebble. Twice the recommended size because they look twice as good. This size of stone also provides better drainage and zero plant ingress like the smaller recommended size. Being so coastal does have some advantages.

Pre Grown Vegetation Blanket
Our plant selection enables the best year-round performance with the least aftercare. During production our plants are irrigated with mineral water from our own limestone aquifer, and are fertilised with organic sea-weed extract, promoting healthier more advanced root systems.

Substrate
Well draining substrate is vital to a thriving Sedum Roof. Sedum is a Stone Crop therefore is happiest living in a stone based growing medium. Scientifically blended for consistent year on year growth. We wouldn't lay a Sedum Roof without it.

Portection, Drainage, Filtration
The base layer is all about drainage. This is because Sedum is a member of the cactus family and they not enjoy having "wet feet." The UK climate is wet enough for our Sedum so after it is installed you will never have to irrigate.
Growing Naturally
We're fortunate to have our own water source Natural Mineral from a limestone aquifer. We drink it everyday.
Combine that with locally gathered organic seaweed extract, promoting advanced root structure to give us a unique advantage on plant development.
Cultivated Properly
A key factor to having a low maintenance Sedum Roof is starting with a blanket that's free from weeds and other unwanted varieties. There's no weeds in our specification!

Become an Urban Carbon Farmer
1m2 of a green roof can absorb 5kg of Co2 yearly. As a perspective, 1m2 of green roof can absorb the same quantity of Co2 as a regular car would emit during a 80km drive.

For the sake of the Bees
Because of the quantity of flowers per square metre nothing attracts bees like our Sedum Blanket. Why not install your own natural bee hive on your roof?
-
The Birds and the Rain
Keeps the living space quieter. Sound proof your garden room and make it a much more tranquil place to relax.

We like this one
Sedum capture airborne particles such as smog, heavy metals and volatile organic compounds from the atmosphere which has a positive effect on air quality and health of inhabitants.
-
Save our Storm Drains
Huge reduction in speed and water coming off the roof which leads to a decrease of the burden on our sewer systems.

It protects not damages
The Sedum blanket system protects your waterproofing layer making it last four to five times longer than the manufacturer specifies.
Almost Zero Maintenance.
We do the hard work so you don’t have to.
Green Roofs Direct blend just the right sedum and grow it in the right conditions so that it needs as little maintainance as possible.
Most of our EverMat™ roofs never require any maintainance, but if you want to keep it in pristine condition these are a few things you can do.
After installation
Water your new sedum three times a week for the first three weeks.
During prolonged dry spells
Water occasionally. Scattering some fertaliser on your roof can also help.
Weeding
If you ever notice anything growing in the sedum that shouldn’t be there, just pluck it out.
