I would think it would be just fine, as long as you can reinforce the rooves fully. Any specialist green roof site should be able to work out the area / depth / forces involved. You just need to find the niche people who are experts on green rooves in shade / with tricky acccess. I have no doubt at all that those sites are out there. If you really want to make it happen, it will.
It's an exciting project. Good luck with it. I would like to try one also.
That's superb @AverageNoodle. You must be thrilled with it You have a good enough depth for some small bulbs. I wonder if Muscari would work there as well, and maybe the woodland Anemones?
Funnily enough - I thought of Ajuga [bugle] later on and then forgot to come back and mention it as a contender for @Alisongriffin81. It grows very readily in shade, and doesn't need much soil, or attention.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
With so much ongoing discuss biodiversity misfortune and environmental change, green rooftops have manufactured a notoriety for being one of numerous strikingly basic approaches to push back. Yet, similar to all the best wheezes, green rooftops are in truth the same old thing. Conventional turf rooftops were ordinary in numerous Nordic nations and the go-to material selection of Vikings!
