Rooftop Gardens

Living in an apartment can be a challenge for an avid horticulturist. As long as the rooftop is unclaimed real estate, it could be the perfect solution.

Utilizing Containers

Containers and raised beds make up the majority of rooftop gardens. Jean Brooks Landscapes has a variety of resources for choosing beautiful lightweight containers and take care of filling them with lightweight soils.

Working With A Rooftop Gardens Professional

It is not easy to create a garden in the sky! Sun and wind are a big consideration. It can be a harsh condition for growing plants, but if you choose the right plants you will have stunning success. Jean Brooks has been designing rooftop gardens for over 30 years and knows very well the conditions and plants that will thrive on the roof. And here on the roof, irrigation is essential. Our knowledgeable team of irrigation specialists ensures that the garden stays moist on the hottest of summer days.
