Hello,
Is it possible to have a green desert roof? I use Xeriscaping on in my yard but would think in my hot climate that a green roof structure would dry out very fast. Is there a wey to have a green desert roof? Perhaps by placing the xeriscaping tubes underneath the soil surrounded by water absorbing gel crystals with peat moss on top then soil and desert plantings? Thanks a bunch! Donald |

I know there are several here in Las Vegas. A cool example of one I saw was on Planet Green's "World's Greenest Homes". An engineer in Phoenix has a nice one.
Here is another good example of one in Tucson on a public building. Last edited by SierraClubGreenHom; 06-23-2009 at 12:26 PM. |

Nice video! Wow that guy actually produces more power then used and probably makes some nice coin. I like the plants on the roof as well!
