Abstract
⺠Most green roofs are planted with only a few drought-tolerant species. ⺠Diverse plant communities on green roofs may improve green roof functioning. ⺠There are few experimental manipulations of diversity on green roofs. ⺠We review the ecological biodiversity literature in the context of green roofs. ⺠The results suggest an explicit research agenda for future green roof studies.
