Abstract

A roof system for a building having a roof deck comprises, upwardly from the roof deck, a base membrane affixed to the roof deck; at least one moisture control layer; a vegetation support layer; and a vegetative mass layer comprising a plurality of plants with a root portion and a body portion, such that the root portion affixes the plant to the vegetation support layer and the body portion extends upwardly from a top surface of the vegetation support layer. In many aspects of the invention, the base membrane is a modified bitumen membrane, reinforced with a fiber material. The base membrane and the moisture control layers may be impregnated with a root growth inhibitor. In many aspects of the invention, the plants will have the following characteristics: perennial, low-growing (in the range of 1 to 12 inches) evergreens that tolerate full sun, heat, periods of drought and periods of heavy rain. The plants should require little maintenance, including pruning, fertilizing and pest control, to minimize necessary foot traffic. The plants may be flowering or the foliage may provide color.
