Green Roofs and Crimson Clover - Day Five Plants Growing Strong

Green Roof Nitrogen Fixing Plant - Crimson Clover Day Five Sprouts
I suspect the juvenile Crimson Clover plants,  Trifoium incarnata, are already beginning to develop the mechanisms allowing fixation of nitrogen into the green roof soil.

Amazing.  Nature's own way of feeding plants.

Just the right amount of nutrients in just the right formulation.

Day five and the juvenile plants are really beginning to grow and cover the roof.  More photos tomorrow.

Happy green roofing.
