Planting Green Roofs is much more than a book about plantings. Close to half of the book provides an excellent overview of green roofs, including historical background, detailed information on the benefits of green roofs, and specifics on the various components of green roofs. Then, true to the book's title, it concludes with extensive information on appropriate plant selection for green roofs.
