Succulents (LEGO 10309)

About this set

LEGO 10309 belongs to the Botanical Collection and is boxed as The LEGO Succulents, a 771-piece build rated 5/5 for difficulty, so expect the challenge to come from leaf layering and arranging rather than from any single tricky step. The finished set is a group of different succulent models, each sitting in its own independent black square pot; you can display them separately or clip them together into one tabletop arrangement. The color range covers green, light green, purple, pink, orange, red, brown and black, and the layered leaves and offshoot placement are the main visual draw. The instructions come as Book 1 among multiple booklets, so work through them pot by pot: build the main rosette first, then add the outer pups, and keep same-colored parts sorted to avoid digging. The mix of prickly and plumply shapes gives the succulents a chic look that perks up a windowsill or table centrepiece, and even a newbie plant parent can end up with a display that reads like a pro build.
