Lego Botanicals: From Easy to Hard
16
items Lego says “18+” because these are for adults. I say that’s a warning label. Some of these sets are a delight—relaxing, satisfying, even meditative. Others will have you rage-squinting at nearly identical pieces wondering why you thought a tiny bouque...
Each set listed here is one that I have actually built.

Quick & Easy
These are your no-drama builds. A couple of satisfying clicks, a few sprigs and leaves, and you’re done. Minimal repetition, maximum joy. Ideal for winding down, gifting without guilt, or tricking your brain into thinking you’re being productive whil...
This is a super easy build that really pays off. There are many variations available within the box and you can add on more flowers and features to the heart over time.
Heart Ornament 40638 | 254 Pieces
This is one of my favorite sets to build due to how modular and separate each mini-pot plant is. The smallest ones can be put together in minutes.
Tiny Plants 10329 | 758 Pieces
This 274 piece set is one the of the easiest botanicals to put together. The base is straightforward and there are very few small pieces to worry about.
Mini Orchid 10343 | 274 Pieces
This features the same base as the other small botanicals. Very easy to put together due to the significant amount of repetition in building the bamboo stalks.
Lucky Bamboo 10344 | 325 Pieces
This is very similar to it's sister sets and straightforward to put together. The small pointy pieces can make it a challenge for fingers lacking dexterity.
Chrysanthemum 10368 | 278 Pieces
This 327 piece set is slightly more challenging than it's sister sets due to the construction of the petals.
Plum Blossom 10369 | 327 Pieces
The extremely modular and separate nature of this set makes it extremely easy to build. Each plant is self-contained as a step and separate bag of bricks, making it a perfect project to slowly work on. I highly recommend this set to beginners.
Succulents 10309 | 771 Pieces
This set features 4 different types of roses with 3 of each type. This makes it very easy to put together, especially with a friend or two. These look timeless in a vase and are perfect for romantic occasions.
Bouquet of Roses 10328 | 822 Pieces
This bouquet set looks gorgeous in a glass vase. There are multiples of the same flower, so it's easy to build solo or with a friend. Watch your fingers are some of the pointy pieces, the rigid plastic can irritate your fingertips.
Flower Bouquet 10280 | 756 Pieces
Similar to other bouquets, this features multiple of the same flower, making it easier to build. The colors are very vibrant and make this bouquet stand out among its peers.
Wildflower Bouquet 10313 | 939 Pieces
One of the easiest Christmas sets to put together. It makes an excellent centerpiece and the small details, like the flame tip, make it a joy to put together.
Christmas Table Decoration 40743 | 434 Pieces

Tedious & Hard
These are gorgeous (and absolutely worth building). They’re also not here to make your life easier or good candidates for “my first Lego set.” Expect repetitive stems, confusing angles, and enough nearly-identical pieces to haunt your dreams. You’ll ...
WIth 878 pieces and multiple configurations, this bonsai tree is one of the longer botanical builds. It's easy to get lost on positioning and placement of the smaller components and best to take a “I'm making it look natural” approach.
Bonsai Tree 10281 | 878 Pieces
This set features many new and different flowers that can be built over 10 distinct steps. There are some challenging parts, mostly related to how the petals connect and the significant number of small butterfly pieces used with the purple hydrangeas...
Flower Arrangement 10345 | 1161 Pieces
This orchid is timeless and one of the most striking botanical sets. I consider this hard due to the potential confusion with building the stems. The petals can also be somewhat challenging to attach properly.
Orchid 10311 | 608 Pieces
While this set is only 2 distinct cherry blossom stalks, it is hard to put together due to the identical elements and the challenge of ensuring the pieces are placed in the right sections on the stems.
Cherry Blossoms 40725 | 430 Pieces
This one has several pieces and it can be difficult to get placement right of the different components on the wreath. However, it includes some of the most beautiful blocks and pieces, which stand out with the ultra-smooth green base. Very worth the ...
