Fantastic Green Roof Pictures

June 30th, 2010

I had to write a blog this week just to give me an excuse to publish these amazing photographs.

These are pictures of the green roof I created last week in Tilly Carefoots Lancashire Garden. Tilly originally ordered sedum from us to line either side of a path in her garden but was so impressed with the quality and natural beauty of the sedum that she asked us to go back and create a green roof on her round summerhouse. This wasn’t a straight forward job by any stretch of the imagination, so I made sure I went to do the job myself. Each retention strip had to be individually cut to fit the round shape of the roof, to ensure the sedum remains securely in position, but the results were stunning! The sedum perfectly compliments the wonderfully natural suroundings and lets the Summer House almost disappear into the landscape.

Gardeners World are filming in Tillys garden next week so look out for Sedum Supply’s sedum path and sedum roof coming to your screens soon!

We are getting lots of reports from owners of our sedum roofs at the moment saying that the bees are really loving their sedum flowers – so this has to be good news for all of us. I think everyone should have some sedum in their gardens to help support our struggling bee populations.

We have also added a new testimonial with two great green roof pictures to our tesimonial page this week – thanks to John Kesteven for sending us the pictures of his extension roof and garage roof – all beautifully topped with sedum Johns Green Roofs.

Finally, I’ll be up to the Lake District again next week as the 2nd phase of the Grand Design roof is due to be installed.
