It’s a dog house with a green rooftop! And there was an even larger shed. The rooftop modules, which I’m told are about 1.5’ square retail for about $75. The plants are varied in color – not all of them green.
We also loved this “Stepables” exhibit.
So much that we couldn't resist taking off our shoes.

This nursery is not far from me I should go visit them some day. I love the "Stepables" exhibit, it looks like they're all Perennials, what a good idea!
OMG! I want one! Do you think it's possible to convert stairs into little lawns? That would be so cool. I love lawn feet, but it's too nasty out here to try that. A bee stung my toe when I tried to wear flip flops!
What a beautiful nursery, quite a sensory experience going on there. That has to be the fanciest dog house I've ever seen. Some lucky pooch will be happy :)
You've given me some ideas here!
did you go on a hike with Squirrel?
LOVE that doghouse! How cool! I need to check out stepables for a really shady area we have - grass just can NOT grow there and it's time to give up and try something else.
Too funny on taking off your shoes. The stairs sure do look 'steppable'.
I want to be an out of town guest at your house. I'll even stay in that cool dog house. Love the steppables step display.
I am in love with those green roofs, and BTW, someone has some pretty nice legs and feet too! HA My little 8 x 8 shed with the small pitch to the roof could have one of those green roofs, methinks. Thanks for the idea, and what a wonderful place to take garden loving visitors too. :-)

I was at Martterhorn last week and paused to look at their funny looking green rooftops sheds! So glad you did a piece on it and took these great pix!
Jen, I swear I'm not stalking you... but it seems we always end up in the same places!

PS: I agree with Frances about your feet & legs... :)
Hahaha - wish I could take credit, but those are my friend Sonia's legs.
Mine are a little lumpier ;-)
