    I was thinking of this, wondered about putting some arum lilies in the front of mine.
    Don't know what they are using in your pic though.
    The other half thinks the bakki is ugli!

    I had mind your own business growing in the garden in pots but it's really invasive, took me ages to get rid of it.

    I was thinking an aquatic plant, just wanted to put them in the front lip of the bakki trays.
    Did wonder about arun lilies.

    water cress would work well, grows fast and you can eat or compost it to keep its vigour up

    Why don’t you try to create an aquaponics system in the Bakki? That way you could get some juicy tomatoes or strawberries out of it Bakki Shower plants Momotaro?
