What do you get for a plant lover that isn't more plants? The LEGO® Botanicals collection is full of surprises that will thrill every plant lover in your life.

Potted LEGO® Plants

A potted plant from the LEGO® Botanicals collection is a unique, low-maintenance gift for a plant lover. It has all the beauty of a live one without any of the care required. Get the tall, autumn-coloured Chrysanthemum (10368) blossoming out of a jade green pot, or the delicate Plum Blossom (10369) with beautiful red and purple flowers. You could also gift the Orchid (10311) with its stunning pink and white blooms, complete with soil and leaves expanding out of the base, or the Mini Orchid (10343) with green leaves and five lifelike peach blooms, with a light terracotta flowerpot that sits on a brick-built wooden plinth.

If bold blooms aren’t really your style, take a look at the Tiny Plants set (10329). Builders can enjoy this collection of nine small plants, including several cacti, a Venus flytrap and a False Shamrock. Each one is contained in a tiny brick-built terracotta pot and perfect for decorating the entire house.

LEGO® Bouquets

Nothing says “thinking of you” quite like a bouquet of flowers. Put a fun twist on this classic gift by surprising your loved one with a beautiful bouquet of brick-built flowers. Not only will it last much longer (and with no upkeep), but it's also a fun activity to do together.

The LEGO® Pretty Pink Flower Bouquet (10342) features a collection of cymbidium orchids, pink roses, a dahlia, eucalyptus, daisies and more, while the LEGO Wildflower Bouquet (10313) has flowers inspired by cornflowers, lupins, leatherleaf ferns, lavender, cow parsley, gerbera daisies, Welsh poppies and larkspur. Each set comes with adjustable stems, so you can change the height of every flower and pop them in a vase for an everlasting display.

Bring a smile to their face with the adorable LEGO® Botanicals Happy Plants (10349). This charming little set is great for plant lovers aged 9 and upwards, and features brick-built dracaena and pilea plants. Builders can put the plants in the two interchangeable pots, one blue and one yellow, each adorned with a smiling face and little arms and legs. Perfect for displaying on a shelf or desk, these plants are sure to cheer up any space.

Believed to bring good luck and prosperity, this stunning set captures the beauty of real maple trees with vibrant red and orange leaf elements. Sitting in a sleek dark green plant pot, this brick-built tree makes a serene addition to any home or office.

LEGO® Succulents

Succulents don't require a lot of care to begin with, but the LEGO® brick-built versions are even more hassle-free. The LEGO Succulents (10309) set gives a unique look to any indoor garden. This collection of nine plants comes with a moon cactus, a ball cactus, a donkey's tail, an aloe vera plant and echeverias in red, lavender and orange. Each one is contained in a stylish black pot, so you can display them together or separately.

LEGO® Bonsai Tree

Tree and plant enthusiasts have loved raising small bonsai trees for a long time, and the LEGO® Bonsai Tree (10281) can be cherished similarly. Standing on a slatted stand, the bonsai is nestled in a sleek black brick-built pot surrounded by small LEGO elements for soil. You can choose between green leaves and pink cherry blossoms, or you can mix and match them to create your own unique look. You may get a surprise when you take a closer look at the blossoms: each flower is a tiny frog!
