The purpose of this study was to assess drought tolerance of groundcover plants for extensive green roof. Form July to November 2013, plant height, chlorophyll content, soil moisture, evapotranspiration and survival rate was measured. As results, after unirrigation started, Aster koraiensis reached 0% of soil moisture earliest followed by Sedum kamtschaticum, Hemerocallis fulva, Hylotelephium spectabile, Iris sanguinea, Hosta longipes and control. Among the plants, A. koraiensis withered earliest on 19th day of unirrigation experiment, followed by H. longipes and H. fulva (27th day); and I. sanguinea (29th day). S. kamtschaticum and H. spectabile survived even after 120th day of the experiment. As for chlorophyll content, I. sanguinea showed constant values in early stage than rapidly decreased right before its withering. Chlorophyll content of A. koraiensis and H. fulva showed rapid decrease from the beginning, while that of H. spectabile and S. kamtschaticum showed continuous reduction for first 30 days and the reduction was slowed down since then. In conclusion, H. longipes, I. sanguinea and H. fulva were found most applicable for extensive green roof considering scenic aspect.
