Nothing says Valentine’s Day like a beautiful bouquet of flowers, right?

The Society of American Florists reports that Valentine’s Day makes up 30% of transactions of all holidays, marking the largest holiday of the year for floral purchases. A bouquet is a timeless gift and a thoughtful gesture, but… flowers die.

You can really only make a fresh bouquet last so long before it starts to look a bit limp.

There is a solution, though, and just trust me on this one: LEGO Botanicals.

Not just for kids, LEGO has been releasing the botanicals line of bouquets, blooms, and more since 2021, and the collection just keeps growing. While a number of the sets are fully curated bouquets on their own, LEGO also encourages mixing and matching sets and blooms to create your perfect bouquet.

Most LEGO Botanicals sets also come with multiple instruction booklets, so your Valentine’s Day flowers can actually double as a fun date night activity with a final product that can be displayed for years to come.

LEGO Botanicals: Tulip Bouquet

One of the newest Botanicals to hit shelves is this 576-piece tulip bouquet. It comes with 14 stems in five varieties of tulip, from light green buds to closed and open blooms.


LEGO Botanicals: Bouquet of Roses

What’s more romantic than a red rose? This 822-piece set lets you build a dozen roses: four in full bloom, four blossoming and four rosebuds. Additionally, you’ll build four sprigs of baby’s breath, small white flowers.


LEGO Botanicals: Bouquet of Pink Roses

Not a fan of red? No problem. This 789-piece set is similar to the dozen red roses, only in a bright baby pink hue.


LEGO Botanicals: Pretty Pink Flower Bouquet

15 stems make up this buildable bouquet, including blue daisies, cornflowers, eucalyptus, elderflowers, pink roses, a peach ranunculus, cymbidium orchids, a campanula and a waterlily dahlia.

At only 133 pieces, this daisy building kit is perfect for little ones wanting to get in on the Valentine’s Day bouquet building. It also includes sprigs of lavender and a lucky ladybug.

Another smaller set, this bouquet is made of 373 pieces and includes stems of Billy buttons, bluebells, Cleopatra ferns, yellow yarrow, a gerbera daisy, a peony and a tulip.


LEGO Botanicals: Flower Bouquet

The original LEGO Botanicals bouquet is scheduled to be retired later this year, so it may be one of your last chances (and definitely your last Valentine’s Day) to snag the 756-piece set with roses, snapdragons, poppies, asters, daisies and grasses.


LEGO Botanicals: Wildflower Bouquet

This wildflower bouquet brings a pop of bright color to any room. Build cornflowers, lavender, Welsh poppies, cow parsley, leatherleaf ferns, gerbera daisies, larkspur and lupins with this 939-piece set.


LEGO Botanicals: Flower Arrangement

You’re not just building flowers with this soon-to-be-retired set, you’re building the vase too. Arrange 14 blooms — camellias, peonies, hydrangeas, baby’s breath, ranunculus, bouvardia and lilies — in an elegant white pedestal vase.


LEGO Botanicals: Roses

While you wait for the larger sunflower bouquet to ship (it’s currently available to preorder), this smaller set is easy to build for all ages and comes with two yellow sunflowers.


LEGO Botanicals: Cherry Blossom
