Black Horehound (Ballota nigra) is a great plant for wildlife on green roofs. It is a perennial, with heart-shaped, bright green, toothed leaves that turn black once the plant has flowered. The stems go a purple/black as well. But it is the mauve/pink flowers that make it a star plant for bees, butterflies and other pollinators. Continue reading Black Horehound (Ballota nigra) – Green Roof Plant Flax (Linaceae) can be found on green roofs throughout the northern temperate world. The celebrated annual green roof training event in Essex will take place this year on 23rd July. The course is for anyone interested in contracting, installing and building green roofs. Although the focus will be on the small scale – sheds, extensions, outhouses, outdoor classrooms etc, it will also provide enough practical and in depth knowledge for anyone interested in doing larger projects. A bright yellow plant of dry pastures, grassy slopes and well-drained calcareous soils the Bulbous buttercup (Ranunculus bulbosus) is well suited to extensive green roofs of a reasonable depth -greater than 100mm). The green roof installed in Sennen Cove, near Land’s End Cornwall has past through it’s first winter. Considering the weather in Cornwall this winter the roof is doing really well. It is probably the first and the last green roof in England as the pub up in Sennen itself is called this. |
