Sedum green roofing is categorised as "extensive greening" and "intensive greening". Extensive roof greening has low growing plants, a low load and is low maintenance. Intensive roof greening has a heavy load and requires more maintenance but has the benefits of a wider selection of plants and furthermore the area is utilisable and can be used as a rooftop garden area.
