Nine potted plants that never need a drop of water, folks! Welcome to Wishlist After Dark, with the sunniest soul in the building, Sunny, and our fine-print detective, Penny Pickwell! Hi everyone! I've already picked which plant's going on my desk. Hey there. I read the reviews, and good news: nobody had to water anything. Folks, it's lego Botanicals Tiny Plants, a lego building set for the plant lover who keeps killing real plants.

You know exactly who I mean! Oh, I know three of them! It builds nine little potted plants, Marty, and they end up as desk or shelf decor. Nine of them! Okay Sunny, what kinds are we talking? Look at these! There are arid, tropical and carnivorous groups, so you get a Venus flytrap, a pitcher plant and a sundew in here. A flytrap that never bites? My kind of houseplant. And check this number, Marty: 758 pieces.

That's such a nice, relaxing build! Picture them putting together those little terracotta-colored pots, and by the end, their shelf's a tiny jungle. But wait, there's more! The tallest plant's about six and a half inches. Penny, any thorns on this one? Just one. Buyers say the instructions are digital, so whoever builds it needs a phone or tablet nearby. Oh, easy fix! Just prop a tablet up next to the bricks.

Fair enough, Sunny. And in the box: 758 lego pieces for nine potted plants, and no batteries needed. Okay, scores! I'm at eight point seven, because nine plants that never wilt? Pure magic. Sunny? Eight point two from me! And look, the flamingo flower's hiding a tiny ladybug in its soil! Seven point five from me, docked for the phone thing. N B C Select picked it for its best holiday gifts of 2026, and our After Dark Score is eight point one.

That's tied for number two on our home board, right behind the lego Wildflower Bouquet. It's a buy for anyone whose real plants keep wilting! The link's on our site and in the description. See you next time, folks!
