The invention relates to a component covered with vegetation for horizontal, angled, and/or vertical surfaces of buildings, comprising a lower base plate, which is designed as an insulating plate. A vegetation layer having lower and/or higher plants is located on the surface of the component. A plant-tolerated, vapor-permeable adhesive layer is arranged between the insulating plate and the vegetation layer, and a mineral material is adhesively bonded on the adhesive layer, which mineral material enables plant growth for lower and/or higher plants.
