LEGO presents the new Botanical sets: Bonsai Tree and Flower bouquet

Do you love flowers and plants, but you have such a black thumb that not even spending more time at home, between smart working and family life, do you remember to water your hibiscus or ficus benjamin? Don't worry, because LEGO has just presented the perfect solution for you: Bonsai Tree and Flower bouquet. The new Botanical sets will not only help to color and decorate the rooms in our apartments, but are also a way to relax by letting your imagination run free and allowing adult fans to play as kids again.

As adults look for new ways to switch off and relax, we’re delighted to be able to help them seek solace from their busy everyday lives as they immerse themselves in creating these beautiful botanical builds. - explained Jamie Berard, Design Lead at the Danish company - The customizable elements and mindful building experience will hopefully help them express their personality as their creativity blossoms.

The bouquet consists of 756 pieces of different shapes and sizes that, when put together, recreate the shapes and vivid colors of poppies, roses, asters, snapdragons and daisies.  The wide variety of species allows everyone to create a bouquet of flowers expressing both their personal taste and their interior design, while the stems with customizable length allow adapting the composition to any shape and size of the vase.

The bonsai set seems designed to bring a bit of zen to 2021. It consists of no less than 878 pieces that include not only the tree's trunk and foliage, but also a rectangular vase and a stand base. The plant represents a typical Japanese Cherry tree and is available in two versions, a summer version with green leaves and a spring version characterized by white and pink shades, inspired by hanami, the poetic tradition dedicated to observing the flowering of plants and trees.

Both Botanical sets, which include an array of elements made from plant-based plastic, obtained using sustainably sourced sugar cane, are available in LEGO Stores, on LEGO.com and at authorized retailers. The price? $49.99 each.
