Haven’t built anything for some time but decided to build some flower based sets
for my wife.

She doesn’t like cut flowers, they die and she can’t stand the feeling of them
and the slime you sometimes get in the vase.

Not a fan of dried flowers or fake flowers, so the logical thing to me is Lego
based.

Just built 10313, 10311 and 10280 in that order, love the result.

The only minor criticism is that some connections were a little loose, however
they worked

The looseness of the connections worsens over time and the petals become a bit
droopy.

I could, I'm just annoyed I have this problem. Some of the connections were
loose out of the box and it's getting worse even though the set isn't
that old. Ridiculous.

So - just like the real flower bouquets?

All in all, it's then a perfect imitation.
