Lego Botanical Collection Chrysanthemum [10368]
One of the Four Gentlemen or Four Noble Ones series representing the seasons, chrysanthemum represents autumn.
Given we are in the Australian autumn it is convenient that it is the plant that we already have, the rest will be ordered, likely shown at the start of their season.We’ve seen the Lego flowers, now a look at the various Lego plants in the collection.
We can’t kill these plants, worst treatment is they can collect dust!
