LEGO® Botanicals Water Lilies 11511

After finishing Minah Tirith I wanted something quick and easy. Waterlily was rated 9+. I got to the pink petals, they kept falling off off over and over again as I advanced. I had heard the click when I attached them. I went to Lego Builder to check if had done something wrong. I didn’t. Finally I got to step 30, the next to last attaching the stem. And there everything fell apart again. I finally got the pink flower built by attaching the stem before starting the petals and got it done. I did it the same way with the white flower and it was no problem that way. The flowers look beautiful now that they are done.

Supper easy and fun! Made such great decoration on my vanity and goes so well with my room!

The Lego Water Lilies are such a cute addition to my botanical Legos shelf! While most plant-themed Lego sets I've seen only come with one plant to build, this one comes with two, which I really like. They are well-designed to sit next to each other, and look great with my other sets. Not only were these fun and easy to assemble, but they also have the right amount of looking-like-Legos to be able to display in my home and not look weird with my other decor. I worried with this set that the flowers may be top heavy, but that's not the case, they are very lightweight and sturdy so I'm not worried about them falling over. The only downside is price, Legos have gotten more expensive over the past few years and it's not something my household can afford to buy a lot of right now, but you pay for quality and when we can, we will definitely buy more Legos, especially the cute botanical sets like this one.

This was one of the most frustrating LEGO sets I’ve ever built. The petals repeatedly fall off while you’re assembling the flowers, so I spent the entire build stopping to reattach pieces I had already completed. I tried adjusting how I was holding and assembling it, but nothing seemed to prevent it. For such a small, seemingly simple Botanical set, I’m genuinely shocked by how poorly designed the building experience is. This should have been a quick, enjoyable set, but instead it was unnecessarily difficult and aggravating.

The builds of the two flowers are identical, and the layers of each flower are fundamentally identical. So this set is a bit boring and I'm not sure why we needed to repeat it.

Easy to build! Great instructions to follow. Very cute colors and assembly can be done both alone or with a friend! Would definitely recommend this brand as a next purchase.

After building the first box of these gorgeous water lilies I immediately saw the potential for them as a group and bought six more sets. As a larger grouping and a little remixing with multiple sets to get multiple height variations the effect is very pretty. Like most botanical sets the build is repetitive at times and there’s no play value or minifig because that’s not the point of a botanical sets This really is a pretty botanical.

Worst set to assemble. Have spent an hour trying to get the petals in order and they keep popping off. Looks great on the box and great idea but execution is annoying.

As soon as you try to build it you can see the lack of quality. It is extremely hard to place the petals and keep them there. The build itself is average but as soon as you place one petal the rest fall apart. It makes it extremely hard because the whole build is petals. Usually legos are pretty sturdy but I'm afraid to even move them
