Green botanical-looking LEGO pieces — is this the Bonsai Tree?

User submitted LEGO build for identification: Green botanical-looking LEGO pieces — is this the Bonsai Tree?

I received a bag of LEGO pieces as a gift but it came without a box or instructions. There are lots of green leaf pieces, some brown trunk-like elements, a dark blue round pot-shaped structure, and what appear to be tiny pink frog pieces. My friend thinks it might be the Bonsai Tree set but I want to make sure before I start building. Can anyone confirm?

  • The Botanical Collection range appeals to builders of all ages. Sets like Bonsai Tree offer an engaging experience for the whole family.
  • LEGO bricks are manufactured to a tolerance of 2 micrometers — that's why pieces from 2021 fit perfectly with bricks from the 1960s.

Accepted Answer

Yes, this is 100% the LEGO Botanical Collection Bonsai Tree (10281)! The pink frogs are the most distinctive element — they're used as cherry blossom petals in the alternate build. The set comes with both green leaf pieces and the pink frog/blossom pieces so you can switch between a green leafy look and a cherry blossom look. The dark blue pot is unique to this set. Instructions are free at LEGO.com — search for 10281.

Suggested: Bonsai Tree (#10281)
