Cherry Blossoms

Cherry Blossoms is part of the LEGO® Botanical Collection, a display branch rather than a playset. Built from 430 pieces, it recreates a flowering branch in shades of pink and deep red. There are no minifigures included, so the focus stays entirely on shape, colour and building technique.

Description

A display piece, not a play set

Set 40725 sits in the Botanical Collection, LEGO's range of plant and flower models built for shelves rather than play. With 430 pieces and zero minifigures, the whole build is about recreating the branching structure of a cherry tree in bloom, from the woody stem to the individual blossoms. It suits anyone who wants a handmade-looking decoration for a desk, windowsill or bookshelf, and it works well as a gift for people who enjoy LEGO® but rarely build vehicles or buildings. The parts list on this page breaks down exactly what goes into that branch.

Only 23 unique parts

What stands out about this set is its economy of parts: those 430 pieces are built from just 23 unique shapes, repeated and angled in different directions to avoid a stiff, repetitive look. That is a hallmark of the Botanical Collection, where a handful of flower, leaf and branch elements get reused across many sets rather than each model getting its own bespoke pieces. Checking the parts list before buying is worthwhile if you already own other botanical sets, since some shapes and colours are likely to overlap with your existing collection.

Colour palette: pink, deep red and brown

The blossoms combine Bright Pink and Dark Red, with white used sparingly for lighter petals, while the branch itself is moulded in Reddish Brown, LEGO's standard tone for tree trunks and stems. Together these four colours give the model a coherent, naturalistic look rather than a rainbow of mismatched bricks. If you are planning a wider botanical display, that restrained palette makes 40725 easy to place next to other flower or bonsai sets without one model visually competing with another.

Reusing parts for your own arrangements

Because Botanical Collection sets share so many blossom, leaf and stem elements, parts from 40725 can feed into custom flower arrangements alongside other sets in the range. The 23 shapes listed on this page tell you exactly which blossom and branch pieces are included and in what colours, so you can judge in advance whether they fit a display you already have in mind. It is also a quick way to check stock of Bright Pink or Reddish Brown elements before starting a separate project.
