Extensive greenery covers are usually designed to fit large surfaces and anyways are extremely appropriate in all that kind of situation where the hanging cover has to be light, not expensive, low in maintenance and irrigation needs. This system of cover would not be allowed anybody to jump on or walk in. The flora selected is often from the low water demand species, which could survive a long time with low water and hold on any kind of weather stress and at the same time perform a high groundcover solution and a high self-regenerate feature.
Extensive Hanging Greenery
Extensive Hanging Greenery Sedum
Extensive Sedum stratigraphy is the one that makes possible to use the lowest substrate thickness, which means economy and low maintenance for extensive greenery. The opportunity to optimize the stratigraphy comes from the high rustic, strength and grown capacities that Sedum species are provided with from mother nature.

Extensive Hanging Greenery Slope
Extensive sedum and the perennial herbaceous hanging system could be build also on slope covers. In sites where the rake angle is from 5 to 15 grades, the system is implemented by the installation of anti-erosive nets, laid on the substrate, which is design to reduce the erosive effects of the wind, the rain and all the weather agents. In a site where the rake angle is more the 15 grades are commonly used appropriate stratigraphy restraint elements and 3D nets to restrain the substrate.
