Sedum Green Roof Mixture  
A mixture of Sedum varieties for green roofs, up to 25 tried and tested varieties in the mixture all are excellent for a low maintenance, durable, interesting and colourful green roofs and rockery. The mixture enhances the appearance of green roofs due to its differing leaf forms, colours and extended flowering period. Sowing rate 0.5 to 1g per sq metre. 25-30,000 seeds per gram
Prepare a fine weed free seed bed using a soil mix specifically for green roofs. Sow seed evenly over the surface, mixing seed with fine sand will aid even distribution. Gently rake the seed bed so the seed comes into contact with the soil mix and gently water in.

The cultural information should be used as a guide only, I have found a number of different sowing techniques for the same seed from different sources there does not seem to be a standard. With this in mind you should use this website as a guide only, you probably already have a tried and tested way of sowing different seeds. As a rule of thumb the larger the seed size the more cover it requires, and fine seed like Lobelia Begonia etc requires no cover.
