    Hi

    I have one of these units in my garden and have tried planting a few bushes around them but none of them took.

    I'm trying to disguise it as it's just at the back door nearly.

    Has anyone any suggestions or had any luck with this kind of thing?

    Does this area get much sun?

    I'm no expert by any means !! Maybe the reason nothing grew before is because the soil quality isn't great ?? I would imagine a lot of digging went on to install the bio system and you could have a lot of sub soil left on top ?? Just a thought ! If you dig good and deep and put in plenty of compost and maybe a bit of manure before you plant it should give the plants a good start and they would be able to establish a good root system.
