The LEGO Botanicals Tiny Plants building set lets you turn 9 small (miniature) LEGO plants into a low-maintenance display for a shelf, desk, or side table. This LEGO Botanicals Set is designed to be a decorative item for Adults who would like the appearance of greenery but do not have the time to maintain it with watering, etc. In this collection, each plant model represents a specific type of plant in nature; however, the LEGO aspect of each piece is highlighted throughout the set, so the collection has a dual purpose – as a decorative item and as a creative build.
The LEGO Icon’s botanical collection has a unifying color scheme and design element – the terra cotta colored flower pots and various shapes of the individual plants create a unique yet cohesive look that adds visual interest when displayed.
A whimsical LEGO building set for all ages
In addition to the variety of shapes and colors, each plant is inspired by three distinct environments: arid, tropical, and carnivorous. Each of the 9 plants is contained in its own buildable terra-cotta-style pot. This feature provides the flexibility to group multiple plants together or to use an individual plant as an accent. Since the plants are man-made, they eliminate concerns about lighting and watering requirements, and about leaves falling onto surfaces, while providing a visually appealing focal point.
The LEGO Botanicals Sets tie into the sustainability aspects of the LEGO Botanical Collections. LEGO notes that its Botanical collections include elements made from plant-based plastics derived from sustainably sourced sugarcane. This plant-based plastic ties into the collection’s plant theme. Additionally, since the Tiny Plants collection was designed to pair with other LEGO Botanical creations, you can expand your plant display as you collect additional sets.
As stated earlier, the LEGO Botanicals Tiny Plants Set comes with both physical and digital instruction manuals, so you can choose the method that best suits your preferences. The LEGO Builder App offers a digital version of the instruction manual that allows you to zoom in on specific details or track your progress using a mobile device or tablet. You may build all nine plants at once or complete each plant individually, based on your schedule. At the reduced sale price of $39.99, down from the typical $49.99 retail price, the LEGO Botanicals Tiny Plants Set offers a compact display of plants that will never wilt and remain visible as a decorative element for as long as you desire.
