Herbs, Blueberries and Roses flourish in small scale DC roof garden
Canopy created this prime example of a small scale roof garden in Washington, DC. This project is located at the famous Tabard Inn. The owner was interested in a green roof which also would possess the benefits of providing herbs, flowers and food. Canopy constructed this garden using wooden boxes to provide a traditional “herb garden” feel. Specifically, the boxes have different soil depths and are used to grow low bush blueberries, chives, thyme, rosemary, basil, sage, lemon verbena and climbing roses. The roof was completed in the fall of 2007.
