LEGO enthusiasts can now showcase their builds in new ways, such as hanging them on walls or using them as centerpieces or window sill decorations. The Pretty Pink Flower Bouquet comes in six bags, plus an additional bag of long rods for the stems, and includes a printed instruction booklet.

LEGO encourages builders to use digital instructions available online, which can be rotated and zoomed in on, making the building process more accessible, especially for those new to adult LEGO sets or considering this as a Valentine's Day gift.

Each bag contains parts 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 the building experience. For instance, the description for the *Cymbidium* orchid reads:

"*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, known as the waterlily dahlia:

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

Unlike traditional LEGO sets that rely on binding tube mechanisms, the flowers in this set are constructed using hinges, creating the effect of petals extending from the center. This set introduces new building techniques, such as folding petals in an overlapping pattern to mimic the look of a rose, which requires careful planning and precision.

Attention to detail is crucial; a single misaligned petal can cause a chain reaction, necessitating a rebuild. Unlike typical LEGO builds that start with a foundation, the Pretty Pink Flower Bouquet focuses solely on aesthetics, resulting in a delicate, non-playable display piece.

This set, LEGO Pretty Pink Flower Bouquet, Set #10342, comprises 749 pieces and is available at Amazon and the LEGO Store for $59.99. Its impractical yet stunning design makes it a perfect, unique gift for Valentine's Day.
