Botanicals Bonsai Tree Building Set - Artificial Bonsai Tree Plants for Home Decor, Adults Ages 18+ - Faux, Fake Plants for Table, Desk, Office - Birthday Gift for Men & Women - 10281

bought this for my ungrateful ex. he kept it. though it was fun and easy to build (adults) and love the look on a shelf. maybe i’ll purchase this again when i get my money up.

I bought this for my 8-year-old, even though the box is labeled for adults (18+). I was looking for something more "shelf-worthy" than the typical bright primary-colored sets, and the LEGO Botanical Collection really caught my eye. At under $50, the piece count (nearly 900) makes this an incredible value compared to other themed sets. The Build Experience Don't let the adult rating intimidate you if you have a practiced young builder. My son was able to handle 90% of the assembly solo. The Trunk: The "organic" look of the trunk is achieved with some really clever curved pieces. It’s a very satisfying part of the build. The Soil: Instead of a solid base, you pour loose 1x1 round tiles into the pot to act as "pebbles." It’s a unique tactile step, though just a heads-up: if you tip the tree over, you will be hunting for tiny "pebbles" in your carpet! Favorite Features Interchangeable Leaves: It comes with two full sets of foliage—classic green and pink cherry blossoms. Swapping them out is surprisingly fast and easy. The "Frog" Secret: My favorite detail is the pink cherry blossoms; when you look closely, they are actually tiny pink LEGO frogs. It’s a quirky, "very-LEGO" touch that my son thought was hilarious. Final Verdict This is one of the few sets that looks like a legitimate piece of home decor once finished. It’s sturdy, the wood-effect stand is elegant, and it provided about 3 hours of focused building time. For the price, it’s a steal for any LEGO fan, regardless of the age on the box.

Great set, a lot of fun to build and looks great as decorations for desk and shelves.

I gifted this to my son’s new-ish girlfriend for Christmas and she loved it. It’s super cute, easy to assemble. Great gift!

Lego = quality I cannot imagine having any complaints about legos. I've been a fan of Lego since I can remember. The new botanical options are bringing a lot more people of all ages in. My daughter who is 22 and my niece who's also 22 just love all the different Botanical Lego options. I bought this set as a gift for my niece. She couldn't wait to dig in. This set here will make a good starter set for the botanical begginer or the perfect addition for anyone with a room full of botanical Legos. No missing pieces.

I recently treated myself to the LEGO Bonsai Tree set, and I must say, it has exceeded all my expectations! As an avid LEGO enthusiast and a lover of nature, this kit beautifully combines the best of both worlds, allowing me to build and display a stunning piece of art that adds a touch of serenity to my living space. First and foremost, the level of detail in this set is mind-blowing. The intricate branches, the delicate cherry blossom blooms, and the meticulously designed base - every aspect has been thoughtfully crafted to resemble a real bonsai tree. The use of different shades of green and pink bricks for the foliage adds a natural and lifelike feel to the tree, making it a truly captivating centerpiece. The building process itself was an absolute pleasure. LEGO's clear and well-illustrated instructions made assembling the bonsai tree a breeze. Additionally, the set comes with an alternate set of pink blossoms, allowing me to switch between a springtime bloom and a more subtle green leafy look. The versatility of the design is a fantastic feature that lets me tailor the tree to my mood and the changing seasons. Once completed, the LEGO Bonsai Tree became an eye-catching conversation starter in my home. Its presence is both calming and charming, and it brings a sense of tranquility to any room. Whether placed on a bookshelf, a coffee table, or even as a centerpiece for a dining table, it adds a touch of elegance and a splash of color to the surroundings. What I love most about this LEGO set is its ability to offer a meditative building experience. As I carefully assembled each piece, I found myself completely immersed in the process, and it provided a much-needed escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. It's not just a LEGO set; it's a therapeutic creative journey that brings joy and fulfillment. Lastly, I appreciate LEGO's commitment to sustainability. The set includes plant-based elements, which aligns perfectly with my values as an environmentally conscious individual. Kudos to LEGO for taking steps toward a greener future! In conclusion, the LEGO Bonsai Tree is a delightful masterpiece that brings nature and creativity together in a harmonious and rewarding way. Its aesthetic appeal, coupled with the joy of building, makes it an exceptional addition to any LEGO collection or a perfect gift for nature lovers and LEGO enthusiasts alike. I can't recommend this set enough - it's a definite must-have!

Legos are amazing. Looks great even for decor

I bought this LEGO bonsai tree as an activity for my husband and I to do, because we enjoy putting together LEGOS. A few sections of this LEGO set were a little tough, and I had to backtrack a few times before getting it right, but that is just part of the process, and it was fun. It is a cute design once it is done and all put together. We are adults and we still had fun building it, so it is suitable for a wide range of ages. The size is decent for a mini build; the colors are nice, and it holds together well once it is complete. All the LEGO pieces fit good and did as they were supposed to. We were not missing any pieces in the set. This bonsai tree is great for display once it is put together, especially if you enjoy decorative LEGO sets.
