July 20, 2006 , Deerfield Beach , FL – PTGTV is pleased to announce the selection of Green Roof Tops for its highly acclaimed television series, Pulse on America .

It will air nationally on the Travel Channel and regionally before & after CNN Headline News segments.

Roof gardens have been around for thousands of years and have always added flavor to an office or apartment building. However, these creations have not been very easy to construct. A heavy layer of concrete has to be laid in order to prevent plant roots from growing into the building and causing leaks; then another heavy layer of gravel would be placed in order to drain the water from underneath the soil, and a deep level of soil would then have to be placed to lock in the moisture for the plants. This requires a large amount of investment and a considerable amount of time.

But now there is a more convenient, advanced, and resourceful way to produce the roof garden of your dreams. Green Roof Tops presents a highly beneficial way to produce the ideal garden roof, or Green Top. With either the G- Sky Extensive Green Roof System, or the Sky Garden GR-S Intensive Green Roof System, a premier roof garden solution is obtained through a lightweight (ranging from 1/4 to1/8 the weight of traditional garden roofs) and thin technology that saves you thousands on structural upgrades, and cuts costs and maintenance time by one-third.

Not only do Green Roof Tops protect the building from UV rays and acid rain and reduce A/C usage, they also act as sound insulation and storm water control. Such gardens also help reduce people's psychological and physiological pressures and can create cool spots.

The company has produced roof gardens all over the U.S. and Canada , and is currently working on a special ten-acre greening project with New York City .
