My Green Roof Kit

Complete green roof kit with fleece, lightweight substrate, and biodiverse wildflower plug plants for domestic and commercial flat or low-pitch roofs.

My Green Roof Kit is a complete, professional-grade solution for creating biodiverse, low-maintenance green roofs on domestic, commercial, and public buildings. Designed for both professional installers and confident DIY users, this all-in-one system enables flat or low-pitch roofs to be transformed into thriving green spaces that support wildlife, improve insulation, and enhance the sustainability credentials of any project.

Each kit includes a ribbed protective fleece that provides drainage and water storage, a lightweight engineered growing substrate specifically formulated for rooftop conditions, and a carefully selected mix of biodiverse wildflower plug plants that establish into a resilient roof meadow. Together, these components create a robust green roof system suitable for long-term performance in exposed environments.

My Green Roof Kit is suitable for a wide range of applications, from sheds, garages, garden offices and home extensions to hotels, estates, leisure facilities, commercial buildings, and urban greening schemes. The system enhances biodiversity, supports pollinators, improves air quality, and helps regulate building temperature, contributing to reduced energy use.

Available in 2m², 5m², and 10m² kits, each package is carefully measured to ensure straightforward installation and consistent results, making it ideal for landscape projects of all scales.

  • Ensure roof structure is suitable for green roof loading before installation
  • Install only on flat or low-pitch roofs with appropriate waterproofing
  • Lay ribbed fleece evenly to allow effective drainage and water retention
  • Spread substrate evenly to a depth of 80–120mm
  • Plant wildflower plugs at a rate of 20–30 plugs per m²
  • Water regularly for the first 3 weeks to aid establishment
  • Water during prolonged dry periods in the first growing season
  • Fertilise lightly in spring if required
  • Remove weeds and trim vegetation in autumn
  • Follow GRO Code of Best Practice recommendations
