About Cool Rooftop Garden Ideas

Roof garden ideas is a garden on the roof of a building. It gives a decorative benefit, roof plantings also may provide food, temperature control, hydrologist benefits, architectural enhancement, habitats or corridors for wildlife, recreational opportunities, and in large scale it may even have ecological benefits. The practice of cultivating food on the rooftop of buildings is sometimes referred to as rooftop farming. Rooftop farming is usually done using green roof, hydroponics, aeronautics or aerodynamics systems or container gardens.

Roof garden design is not a new thing. City dwellers have been placing plants on roofs and fire escapes for generations. Even green roofs, roofs covered with soil and plants, have been around for years. It seems no matter how much land a gardener has, we always seem to be looking for more space, and roof top gardens of all kinds are gaining popularity in both residential and commercial sites.

Theoretically, every roof surface can be greened even sloped or curved roofs can support a layer of sod or wild flowers. Switzerland has just passed a bylaw which states that new buildings must be designed to relocate the green space covered by the building's footprint to their roofs, even existing buildings including historical buildings must now green 20% of their rooftops. This has created an increased demand for research and material/product design, which will soon be available to North American markets.

Gardening on rooftops in ever increasingly dense and sprawling cities is an original way to take back unused and sterile spaces like rooftops, patios and balconies and to transform them into livable spaces that are lush, productive and purifying. In addition to embellishing the urban landscape with food-producing gardens at the tops of buildings and producing fresh food, these new spaces for the community enable us to reduce the ecological footprint of the houses and institutions of which we are an integral part.

Rooftop gardens not only provide a unique way for urbanity gardeners to do what they love most, but can also save on energy since rooftop plants supply buildings with additional insulation and shade. Furthermore, rooftop gardens can absorb rainfall, reducing runoff.
