Green Roofs in the Capital Region of British Columbia

Green roofs, also known as living roofs, vegetated roofs, or eco roofs, are building roofs which are purposely covered with vegetation. Green roofs can be below, at, or above grade, but in all cases the plants are not planted in the ground, but rather, in the roof itself. The Capital Regional District has developed a virtual tour of eight green roofs in the Victoria region.
