LEGO 10309 Succulents and 10311 Orchid available now

Two brand new LEGO Botanical Collection sets are blooming today, expanding the scope of the 18+ theme to include five buildable plants.

10309 Succulents and 10311 Orchid join 10280 Flower Bouquet, 10281 Bonsai Tree and 10289 Bird of Paradise in rounding out the current line-up of Botanical Collection sets – a subtheme only made possible by the LEGO Group’s recent focus on the adult market, given these are entirely display models. (We suppose you could play with the flowers if you really tried.)

Both of the new additions are worth your time, but particularly 10311 Orchid, which hits that sweet spot of looking more like the real thing than LEGO bricks. Click the links below to go to LEGO.com and buy either or both of these brand new sets, then come back and while away the wait for delivery with our reviews.

Spoiler alert: they look sublime side-by-side, so apologies if you suddenly want to buy them all.

Also available from today are brand new Star Wars, Collectible Minifigures and Horizon Forbidden West products, along with Friends’ first foray into space.
