#newyorkplantings Garden Designers and Landscape Contractors have been
planting turf and other vegetation on rooftops for about 15 years.
The term greenroof was not common at the time we were instructed by a local
landscape architect to mound soil on top of a roof and build a deck around
it.
That installation is about 12 years old and we made a mess out of the
Firestone roof beneath it! Live and learn!
IMO it seems that many who attempt the greenroofing installations today are
in the same position we were about 15 year ago.
The installations by the less garden savvy or enthusiastic are
increasing in number as well.
You don’t have to worry about our commitment to pure garden excitement at
NY Plantings!
The same care and efforts and enthusiasm go into our greenroofs as the
garden obsession that started this small but mighty company about 16 years
ago.
Any memorable artist was indeed obsessed with his or her work. A healthy
obsession oxymoron and having studied hndreds of garden books, periodicals,
design renderings, dreaming of how that paper bark maple would look just
off the deck, outside my bedroom window..reading the caption dozens of
times in garden reference text book…
Now, like Harley Davidsons, like the blues, like CBGB and like America…
Some Brooklynytes with flannels and beards in hipster funk decided to be
greenroofers….is it less cool now as are the aforementioned because it
seems everyone is doing it? Someone made it easy…just like fuel injection
and computer controls eliminated the need or a choke enabling the masses to
simply start that Harley, put on the biker costume and RIDE!.
I guess that’s how the cowboys felt or the real bikers.
So would, of course, the real garden guys (girls).
CK out this greenroof thing on Zinco website. A good way for the newbie to
be a NYC greenroof installation expert. No need to have decades of love and
experience in your own personal garden…now the apartment raised and bred
can achieve notoriety while helping mamma earth….just apply for that
grant from NYC and follow the instructions. Don’t forget your list of
“indigenous species”. oh yes.
