If you’re looking for a Valentine’s Day gift that is always sure to impress, then you can’t go wrong with the traditional bunch of flowers.
While we have no doubt that a lavish bunch of roses will go down well with many recipients, there is no denying they have a short shelf life. If that’s your concern, then we have spotted one “unique” alternative Amazon shoppers are buying instead.
The Lego’s Botanicals Wildflower Bouquet Set is currently a popular gifting option not just for Valentine’s Day, but also birthdays and anniversaries. Ahead of February 14, you can nab it yourself for £37.89, down from £54.99, saving 31 percent off the RRP.

Singled out as an ‘Amazon Choice’ product due to its popularity, this bouquet set is perfect for Lego fans and garden lovers alike. It comes complete with a mix of eight “vibrant” species of flowers that will brighten up any room.
Offering 16 stems in total, the mix of flowers include cornflower, lavender, Welsh poppies, cow parsley, leatherleaf ferns, gerbera daisies, larkspur and lupins. As they are artificial, they never need watered, and will offer a life-long romantic option for your home.
Lego’s Botanicals Wildflower Bouquet has amassed a 4.8 rating based on over 5,000 reviews, as numerous Valentine’s Day shoppers have praised them as an “out of the box” idea that they have “no regrets” buying.
One shopper who called them an “out of the box” idea for Valentine’s Day said: “Overall, LEGO 10313 Icons Wildflower Bouquet Set is a beautiful, unique, and practical gift for Valentine’s Day. Whether you’re looking for a home décor item or a special gift for your girlfriend, this bouquet is sure to impress.
They added: “Its vibrant colors, realistic look, and versatility make it a great choice for anyone looking to add a touch of nature to their home or crafting space.”
Someone else wrote: “The colours are nice and vibrant and the attention to detail is really impressive. These flowers were well received on Valentine’s day and they have the added bonus of not wilting and dying – or being eaten by our cats! Very impressed and will look at the rest of the Icons flower range.”
Someone who bought it for their partner said: “I bought this as a Valentine present for the girlfriend, as a lot of other guys I’m sure. It exceeds the expectations honestly. I got a very calm and peaceful day while she was building it.
“And she was happy to build it as well. I’m buying more of this Lego flower stuff. She seemed to love it, no regrets. Thank you Lego!”
Not everyone was impressed with the quality, as one three-star review read: “Unlike conventional Lego these bricks do not fasten together well.
“Bits drop of every time they are slightly moved. They look beautiful but I’m fed up with bits dropping off every time someone touches them. I’m tempted to glue them together but then…it’s no longer Lego is it ? The other flower set has the same issues.”
