Projects: Green roof with Solar Panels
A residential ecoroof project on an earth-integrated house includes a planted slope as well as photo-voltaic panels and solar water heater panels

The rooftop is planted with drought-tolerant perennials such as Zauchneria (California fuschia), Heliochyrsum petiolare (licorice), native Salvias (sages) and Calylophus hartwegii (sundrops); native grasses such as Aristida purpea (purple three-awn) and Nassella pulchra (needle grass), and assorted succulents such Senecios, Sedums, and Echeverias
