Tulip Bouquet (LEGO 11501)

About this set

This tulip bouquet is part of the LEGO Botanical Collection, set number 11501, with 576 pieces and a 5/5 difficulty rating. The blooms are built from bricks, with petals formed from curved and sloped elements around a visible center detail, and each stem carries clearly defined leaves. The color range covers orange, yellow, pink, red, purple, and green. The main challenge is the flower heads: each tulip's petals need to be layered evenly around the center, and it is easy to get them slightly off-axis, so it helps to lock the center first, sort petals by color, then attach them to the stems. Stems and leaves are more straightforward and can be built in between to break up repetition. At 5/5, this is best suited to builders who are already comfortable with basic techniques and want to work with curved parts; newer builders can group by color to cut down on sorting time. Keep an eye on how many pieces of each color you have left as you go, so the final arrangement stays balanced. It suits fans of floral subjects and static display sets, and works well as a botanical-themed building exercise.
