Vertical greening and roof gardening is an important element of sustainable urban planning, and also a significant aspect in the construction of an 'eco-friendly China'. Especially now, when the greening area available to citizens is becoming less and less, vertical greening can give some compensations. It is also an important means to alleviate the urban heat island effect and deal with heavy storms. It also plays a key role in achieving the goal of sustainable development. This book aims to review developments of eco-cities in China in recent years. The book is divided into two parts. Part 1 introduces basic knowledge and technical know-how about vertical greening, including a general introduction and suggestions about site analysis, planning and design, green wall and roof construction techniques and maintenance. Part 2 is a collection of 32 projects, showing the latest achievements in vertical greening and roof gardens in China. All these projects are selected carefully and presented with photos, drawings and narratives to demonstrate the design process, conception, and installation/realisation in a professional way. Besides, important elements and factors that will have an impact on vertical landscaping are discussed in detail. It will be helpful to vertical greening practitioners around the world to learn from experiences and lessons in China.
