I thought the inspirational models in the instructions were neat, but perhaps a bit difficult to achieve for people like me just getting into Lego through the Botanical Collection. Could people who don‘t (yet) have a mountain of lego to mod with still get in on the fun? Now, after some experimentation I think they can. I present 5 builds that were made by adding solely bricks from LEGO Flower Bouquet 10280, the set I suppose is most likely to also be owned by those purchasing LEGO Bonsai 10281. Take apart temporarily 1 or 2 flowers and get more variation in both bouquet and bonsai.
This one is an azalea, made from the bouquet‘s daisies and the top buds of the snapdragons.
