“Summary
27
Conclusion
▹ Has the vegetation composition on the studied EGRs changed after it has been established?
Yes
▹ How has the composition changed?
SES have established on roofs51% of studied plots experience decrease in originally planted species abundanceRichness of originally planted species decrease, but richness in total increase
▹ What is the relation between vegetation composition and environmental variables?
The most statistically significant for species distribution are type of sedum mix, soil depth, ph, loss on ignition, K and P levels and age
