Product Information
Full details
This LEGO Botanicals Rocking Plants set (11506) is designed for adults and teens who enjoy building creative decor pieces and are fans of plants. Its key benefit is providing a fun, colorful, and interactive decorative item that brings a touch of nature indoors without the maintenance of real plants. A small caveat is that the rocking feature is a gentle wobble rather than a dramatic motion. This set allows you to build two cheerful artificial plant models, Lumi (a delosperma) and Ellie (an echeveria), each in a smiley-faced, pastel-colored pot that rocks. The pieces are compatible with other sets in the LEGO Botanicals range, encouraging customization.
