You've heard of bonsai, Kei-tora gardens take it to the next level
All over Japan, tiny trucks zip hither and thither through city and country, hauling everything from little pallets of lumber to construction tools. If it wasn't a real phenomenon, it might well be a Studio Ghibli animated feature because all these kei-tora are as adorable as Corgis with backpacks. They work hard, they're nimble enough to squeeze down the back lanes of Tokyo and Kyoto, and if you're a gardener or landscaper in Japan, a kei truck is an absolutely indispensable tool.
Officially sanctioned by the Japan Federation of Landscape Contractors, regional contests like these started in Toyama in 2011 and can now be found as annual events in multiple Japanese prefectures: Akita, Miyago, Ibaraki, Miyazaki, and Osaka. As the Toyama event is now in its 13th year, it hosted 13 entries. The rules, such as they are, are fairly loose, the better to encourage creativity.
