Garden on the roof of the house? Why not?! Besides their decorative use, roof plantings may provide food, temperature control, hydrological benefits, architectural enhancement, and lots of recreational opportunities. Thus, we gathered 25 examples of amazing roof gardens in a gallery that is going to seduce you this summer. From extravagant assemblies with cushions and bathtubs on the roof to secluded corners where only a modest flower pot enlivens the atmosphere, gardens are human’s best friends. Moreover, they provide space for small-scale urban agriculture, that is source for local food production. Especially in the cities where available gardening areas are often seriously lacking. So, plan making one! I bet everyone would like to impress the guests with eco vegetables and refreshing spaces.
