Garden Roof® Assembly Plant Options
Plant Options
Hydrotech has developed plant lists for Extensive Garden Roof® Assemblies for numerous cities covering Canada, all of which are included in Hydrotech's Plant Warranty Program. Each list is assembled using plants that are proven to thrive in that location. The plant lists contain information on: height, spread, water needs, sun exposure, foliage and bloom color, AAFC Hardiness Zones and the months in which blooming occurs.
