Since its debut in 2021, the LEGO Icons Botanical Collection subtheme has hit the nail on the head with the adult market of LEGO. Four years and many brick-built plants and flowers later, LEGO Botanicals is officially branching out to become its own 18+ theme. The new adult-oriented theme kicks off with four brand new sets launching on the 1st of January 2025.
These four sets are 10342 Pretty Pink Flower Bouquet, 10343 Mini Orchid, 10344 Lucky Bamboo and 10345 Flower Arrangement. In fact, the latter of these releases a month later on the 1st of February 2025 yet is still a beautiful display model, retailing for a fair price and including plenty of interesting building techniques and parts just like every LEGO Botanicals set.
10342 Pretty Pink Flower Bouquet
The second largest set of the four Botanical sets releasing next year is another brand new Bouquet of 10342 Pretty Pink Flower Bouquet. This time however the $60 set focuses on several flowers which all have brightly coloured pink blossoms. These types of flowers include daisies, cornflowers, eucalyptus, elderflowers, roses, ranunculus, cymbidium orchids, a waterlily dahlia and a campanula to make a lovely contrast of colours and tones of pink.
