John Little argues against long standing protocol within public space and horticulture. He suggests structural complexity is overlooked in landscape design and is more important than plant choice for driving biodiversity. Since starting the Grass Roof Company in 1998 he has designed and built over 300 small green-roof buildings, combining deep biodiverse green-roofs with walls of breeding and hibernation space.





Larry Weaner received his Associates degree in Ornamental Horticulture from Pennsylvania College of Technology. He founded Larry Weaner Landscape Associates in 1982, a firm with a national reputation for its work combining environmental science and the traditions of garden design. His projects have spanned more than 20 states and the U.K., been featured in regional and national publications (including The New York Times), and included in garden tours sponsored by the Association of Professional Landscape Designers, The Pennsylvania Horticulture Society, The American Horticulture Society, and The Garden Conservancy. In 2008 one of his residential projects received the top three annual awards from the Association of Professional Landscape Designers and a Landscape Design Honor award from the Perennial Plant Association.
