Toy brand Lego has released construction kits that allow grown-ups to build flower bouquets and bonsai trees from bioplastic components.

The Danish brand's Botanical Collection consists of two sets, both featuring snap-together components derived from sugarcane.
Flower Bouquet contains elements to construct bunches of model flowers and grasses while the pieces in the Bonsai Tree set combine to create a miniature tree with optional blossom.
Kits to build individual roses and tulips are also available.
"As adults look for new ways to switch off and relax, we saw an opportunity to help them switch off after a busy day and relax as they immerse themselves in creating these beautiful botanical builds," said Lego senior designer Anderson Ward Grubb told Dezeen.

Lego launched the collections as many people are spending extended periods of time at home due to the coronavirus pandemic. The completed models are intended to be displayed in the home.
"Our homes have always been the most important spaces in our lives, and that's only become even more so as many of us find ourselves there for longer periods of time than we're used to," explained Grubb.
"So, it was critical for us during the design process to create products that were not just fun to build but were beautiful pieces of decor that you'd want to have on display and bring you a bit of that focus and joy you felt as you put them together."
