To GRO or not to GRO 🤔my lunchtime #greenroof inspection.
Our #GreenRoofs must provide a range of natural benefits & be biodiverse. Our #GreenRoof plants need substrate 2 grow in. Mats/blankets on mineral wool don't deliver 4 nature, wellbeing, climate change or sustainability

'I'm as happy as can be' loving life on his way to @sthelensp this morning.
