When you think about a truck – particularly a tiny, flatbed construction and landscaping truck like a kei – beauty probably doesn’t come to mind. But every year, the Japan Federation of Landscape Contractors challenges those perceptions when they put on their annual Kei Truck Garden contest.

The contest encourages landscapers from across the country to create amazing little gardens in the cargo areas of their trucks, and the winner receives the title of the best mobile landscaper.

The rest of us win the chance to take a peek into what one can do with even a tiny space, some creativity, and some bits of nature.
