Gardens of the Cross Timbers: Green roofs

The Hanging Gardens of Babylon were constructed 500 BC. Stone arches were covered in layers of tar and reeds before trees and plants were added. Some of the most famous of the Green Roofs.
The #5 presentation in the Oklahoma State University Shackleford Series was held May 13. Brad Rowe, director of the Michigan State University Green Roof Project, showed up on my computer screen and presented “The Role of Green Roofs in Sustainable Development.” The Zoom presentation went off without a hitch at my house. It could have as well been plagued with low band width, interrupted internet connections or a cat running over the computer keyboard.
