We have worked with Angie on several residential rooftop projects. Angie’s expertise extends far beyond rooftop Sedum! She has helped our team develop details and complete systems for total rooftop living areas. If we have a job that includes rooftop work, we call AD Greenroof.

Overview of the projects’ success
Within the genus Sedum, we select hardy species fitting for most climates. In the upper midwest, we have about 25 spp to choose from. What makes Pioneer Hall successful is the diverse blends that fill in over time. If the plants are happy, they’ll keep spreading across the growing media.
