[0006]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, a method for greening a roof or the like according to the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to an embodiment shown in the drawings. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a planting container, and 2 denotes a container mounting portion such as a roof or a roof.

[0007] The planting container 1 is not particularly limited, but is, for example, a long one having a predetermined width (for example, about 20 cm to about 30 cm) and a predetermined length (for example, about 3 m to about 6 m). A body can be used. Examples of a material constituting the planting container 1 include plastic and metal, and among them, metal is preferable. By connecting the planting container 1 made of metal to a bed supporting member (not shown) provided directly above the structural material of the building, the structural material such as a self-supporting beam, girder or the like having its own loading capacity is provided. Function.

Further, as the planting container 1, a container provided with a drain gutter (not shown) at its lower part can be used. In this case, the upper part of the gutter is further covered. A water-permeable sheet that is impervious to the root can be provided. In addition, as a culture medium provided in the planting container 1 (on the above through a non-rooted water-permeable sheet),
For example, mineral fiber granular cotton such as rock wool and ceramic wool, and lightweight artificial floor soil such as vermiculite and perlite can be used.

The planting container 1 can be used alone or arranged in a line in the longitudinal direction in a place where the greening area is small, such as a veranda or a balcony. For example, when installing in a place where the greening area is large, a plurality of such areas are arranged in parallel at predetermined intervals. In this case, the interval between the planting containers 1 and 1 belonging to the rows adjacent to each other is preferably about 1 m to about 3 m. Accordingly, the creeping shrub 3 planted in the planting container 1 belonging to one row does not require much time to grow until it reaches the side wall of the planting container 1 belonging to the adjacent row. Can be done. The interval between adjacent planting containers 1 and 1 also differs depending on the type of the creeping shrub. For example, beetle, sonare,
In the case of high junipers such as Blue Pacific, Bar Harbor, Grauka, etc., it takes about 5 years to grow 2 m. Therefore, if the interval is further increased, the greening speed between the planting containers 1 and 1 becomes considerably slow. Therefore, in the case of junipers, it is preferable to be about 1 m to about 2 m.

Next, a method for greening a roof or the like according to the present embodiment will be described. First, a plurality of the above-mentioned planting containers 1 are arranged in parallel on a container mounting portion 2 such as a roof at an interval of about 1 m to about 2 m. Next, a creeping shrub 3 such as high juniper is planted in the planting container 1. As a result, as they grow, the creeping shrub 3 planted in the planting container 1 belonging to one row grows toward the planting container 1 belonging to another adjacent row.
Eventually, the planting container 1 belonging to this other adjacent row
Reaches the side wall portion. When the junipers are used as the creeping shrub 3 and the spacing between the adjacent planting containers 1 and 1 is set in a range of about 1 m to about 2 m, the adjacent planting containers 1 and 1 are used. Does not crawl on the container mounting portion 2 until the container reaches the position. Therefore,
It is possible to green the space between the adjacent planting containers 1 and 1 without using an auxiliary material such as a net.

On the other hand, in the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, a vine plant 4 is mixed in each planting container 1 in addition to the creeping shrub 3. In this case, from the nature of the plant, first, the creeping shrub 3 grows in the lateral direction as in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, and then the climbing plant 4 starts growing. At this time, as described above, when juniper is used as the creeping shrub 3, as long as the interval between the adjacent planting containers 1, 1 is about 1 m to about 2 m, the container mounting portion 2 is used. No crawling up. Therefore, the creeping shrub 3 plays a role as an auxiliary material for climbing provided between the planting containers 1 and 1, and does not require a separate auxiliary material for climbing as in the related art. However, the climbing plant 4 climbs and grows while being entangled with the branches of the creeping shrub 3.

As described above, in the case where the creeping shrub 3 and the climbing plant 4 are mixed, the space between the adjacent planting containers 1 and 1 can be greened by the two plants, thereby increasing the greening rate and climbing the vine. Since the sexual plant 4 is entangled with the creeping shrub 3, the branches are less likely to be broken or damaged by strong winds, snow, and the like. Therefore, it is possible to improve the function of the rooftop greenery, which is to alleviate the heat load of the building, and is particularly suitable for greening a metal folded plate roof or the like with a large heat load. In addition, when only a climbing plant was planted as in the past, another plant that greened the vicinity of the root of the climbing plant was also planted. According to this, the creeping shrub 3 also has a greening function near the root of the climbing plant 4.

[0013]

According to the method for greening a roof or the like of the present invention, creeping shrubs are planted in a planting container, so that there is no need for an auxiliary material for climbing plants as in the prior art. can do. Also, in the case of mixed planting of climbing plants, after the planting, the climbing shrubs grow along with the growth of creeping shrubs naturally, so that the climbing plants are entangled with auxiliary materials, or It is not necessary to add auxiliary materials to grow climbing plants and to lengthen them. Therefore, it contributes to the simplification and efficiency of the entire greening operation including installation of the planting container on the roof or the rooftop to cultivation management.
