This building in Phoenix is more conventional in its design, but still incorporates the signature element of landscaping on top.<br /><br />When I toured the Camelview project, they mentioned that they started growing the plants before they finished the building, and they experimented so that they would know exactly which type of plants would do well in shallow planting boxes on rooftops and balconies. <br /><br />The lack of deep roots would be a big issue for the large trees that you have shown today.Dave-CostaRicaDailyPhoto.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02567583999945259422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8123921266409714516.post-28700634501695526292014-01-15T01:04:54.324-07:002014-01-15T01:04:54.324-07:00A garden with far reaching views too, I expect!A garden with far reaching views too, I expect!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
