Rob Overly and his wife Kate want (Kate's direction the roof plants be useful and practical if on the roof) a small green roof Herb Garden above their front door.
The roof is relatively flat and will receive summer sunlight from mid-morning til mid- to late-afternoon.
We will be installing the roof over existing asphalt roll.
Rob rode his Vespa over last week and we planted several trays of seeds - mainly Garlic Chives, one of my favorite Green Roof Plants. Rob is working on Living Machines and other Green Apparati. He is a great resource for Green Building - find him on the web under Rink Design.... You can also track their project at www.robandkatesgreenroof.blogspot.com
Stay in touch for the up to date reports on Rob and Kate's Herb Garden on the Roof!
