Gone are the days of relegating LEGO sets to storage or battling for space on desks. Now, adult LEGO enthusiasts can hang them on the wall or, like the flowers and plants from the Botanical Collection, use them as window sill decorations or centerpieces.

The Pretty Pink Flower Bouquet comes in six bags, with a seventh containing long rods for the stems. There are no stickers or printed tiles, just a comprehensive printed instruction booklet.

LEGO encourages builders to use digital instructions online, especially for these intricate sets. These digital guides allow you to rotate and zoom in on the builds, making the hobby more accessible, particularly if you're new to adult LEGO sets or concerned about the complexity of this Valentine's gift.

Each bag contains components for different flowers, including daisies, cornflowers, eucalyptus, elderflowers, roses, ranunculus, cymbidium orchids, waterlily dahlias, and campanulas. The instruction booklet provides brief descriptions of each flower in English, French, and Spanish, adding an educational element to your building experience. Here's what it says about the Cymbidium, also known as the boat orchid:

"Cymbidium orchids are documented in records from Confucius' time, around 500 BCE, making them the oldest known cultivated orchid species."

And for the Dahlia nymphaea, or waterlily dahlia:

"Symbols of elegance and grace, the decorative waterlily dahlia blossoms unfold like a luxurious firework display."

Unlike traditional LEGO sets, which use binding tubes to connect bricks, the flowers in this set are constructed using hinges. This technique allows petals to extend outward from the flower's center, creating a realistic look. Layering and angling the petals adds depth and complexity to the bouquet. I discovered new building techniques with this set, which was a refreshing experience for a long-time LEGO enthusiast.

For instance, creating the rose involved folding petals upward in an overlapping pattern, which required careful planning to ensure they didn't occupy the same space when folded. It's a delicate balance of trial and error in a medium known for precision.

One must be attentive to the orientation of each petal, as a single mistake can cause a chain reaction, misaligning the entire flower and requiring you to start over. This happened to me twice, underscoring the importance of precision.

Unlike typical LEGO builds that start with a foundation, the Pretty Pink Flower Bouquet has no underlying structure. It's all about the visual appeal, making the final product delicate and not suitable for play but perfect for display. This set showcases LEGO's design at its most impractical yet beautifully rewarding.

LEGO Pretty Pink Flower Bouquet, Set #10342, retails for $59.99 and includes 749 pieces. It's available now at Amazon and LEGO Store.
