The lifeblood of any vegetation is the growing media that it resides in. For ten years, we have researched the affect that engineered medias have on vegetation. Through these studies we have either engineered or partnered with the most cutting edge engineered medias available. The result is that custom growth medias became a core component of our company. The idea that growth medias are a living breathing organism working symbiotically with the plantings’ root structures was paramount in the development of all of our standard and custom blends. This technology has allowed us to reduce the establishment time for plantings by half. We offer these formulations in standard and custom lightweight and ultra-lightweight blends. Our Fertile Roof Lush is our bread & butter blend for extensive vegetative roofs with drought tolerant plantings. We custom blend per your plant palette, so please provide that list prior to ordering. The results that you will see are absolutely amazing.

The lifeblood of any vegetation is the growing media that it resides in. For ten years, we have researched the affect that engineered medias have on vegetation used for green infrastructure solutions. Through these studies we have either engineered or partnered with the most state of art engineered medias available. The result is that custom growth medias became a core component of our company.

The WB & WM combine traditional organic mix ingredients, such as coconut coir and fir bark, with proprietary ingredients to create a lightweight, hydrophilic matrix. The sponge-like media has a stabilized macro/micro pore structure with excellent capillary action, unparalleled water, air and nutrient holding & cation exchange capacities.

WM retains its porosity, does not break down upon saturation, and exhibits only minute compaction after long periods of use. The media provides beneficial bacteria, and nutrients, to protect and promote root and plant development in a system that reduces irrigation needs by 50%.
