Roof Top Sedums Bird's Eye View - Green Roof E-Newsletter
Happy Holidays!   
As we reflect on the past year and prepare for the upcoming growing season, we are thankful for all of the successful partnerships that we have with the regional designers, contractors, owners, and facility managers, who trust us as experts to help them maximize the potential benefits of having a green roof and green wall on their project.  We are proud that our job is made easier because we work with the proven systems, the LiveRoof Hybrid Green Roof System  and the LiveWall Vertical Greening System. Thank you for your trust in us, and we look forward to all of the unique and exciting opportunities in 2016!


RoofBlue® - NEW Accessory to the LiveRoof® System
LiveRoof Integrated RoofBlue™ Riser is engineered to provide temporary water detention underneath LiveRoof systems.  

When used with a control flow drain system, RoofBlue expands the usefulness of a green roof system as a stormwater management tool:
  • Reduces burden on stormwater systems.
  • May allow for reduced sized stormwater drains - saving money.
  • Could reduce or eliminate the need for other forms of on-site stormwater management.
    (cisterns, underground tanks, detention ponds, etc.)
  • May reduce stormwater utilities or qualify for zoning incentives.
Contact us to discuss how RoofBlue® can be incorporated into your green roof project.

ABOUT ROOF TOP SEDUMS
The seedlings for Roof Top Sedums were planted in 2006, when co-owner Teresa Nelson collaborated on a green roof project with LiveRoof® LLC in Michigan. This collaboration led Teresa and her sister, Roxanne Nagel, to fill a void in the growing green roof industry. Roof Top Sedums, LLC began providing custom grown green roof vegetation for the LiveRoof® Hybrid Green Roof System from their family farm in Davenport, Iowa. In addition, they have added the LiveWall® Vertical Green Wall System to their product line, and are excited to keep growing and growing!
