LEGO has unveiled pictures and info for the latest set in the LEGO Icons Botanical Collection. The set is called Tiny Plants and features 9 plants in dark orange pots. The set is set for release December 1st and can already be pre-ordered for £44.99/€49.99/$49.99. The set consists of 758 pieces and instructions are made so 1-3 people can build on this set simultaneously.

At first glance I’m a little torn on this set. It sure has some nice pieces and part choices. Lime cake frosting, purple butterflies, dark red brushes, yellowish green hats among others. But on the other hand a big chunk of the piece count goes into making rather similar pots and the part counts for the actual plants appears to be limited.

Watch creativity grow
No green thumb needed as you craft these 9 tiny plants to fill your home with joy. The LEGO® Icons Tiny Plants showcase a range of arid, tropical and even carnivorous species, with each plant nestled in its own terracotta-coloured plant pot. A great gift for gardening fans and plant lovers, this set is the perfect project to enjoy with friends and family, with different models for easy, medium and advanced builders.

Rainforest champions
Tropical plants like the jade plant, false shamrock and laceleaf thrive in warm, humid conditions.

Captivating creations
Carnivorous plants like the Venus flytrap, red sundew and the pitcher plant can lure and trap their prey.

Desert survivors
Succulents, prickly pear and pincushion cacti thrive in hot, windy climates with very little rain.
