Looking for an official LEGO Botanicals vase that actually works for your brick-built flowers?
If you’ve ever arranged a LEGO Botanicals bouquet, you know the struggle. Finding a vase isn’t hard. Finding one that keeps the stems looking balanced is. Heavy flowers lean, stems shift, and a beautiful arrangement can quickly turn into a frustrating one.
That’s why I was excited when LEGO released its first official flower vases.
The new LEGO Botanical Vase – Brick Pattern and LEGO Botanical Vase – Flower Pattern are now available in the United States. I spent almost a week checking Target stores before finally finding both, and one thing immediately caught my attention.
They look like they were made for LEGO flowers, but they don’t include any internal support to hold the stems in place.
So, are these official vases actually a better display solution, or are they simply standard plastic vases with LEGO branding?
In this guide, I’ll compare both designs, cover their price, size, materials, and availability, explain who each one is best for, and share my first impressions. I’ll also link my full hands-on review once I’ve finished testing them with several LEGO Botanicals arrangements.

Brick Pattern vs. Flower Pattern: What’s the Difference?
LEGO didn’t release just one official vase for the Botanicals collection. Instead, there are two versions that share the same size, material, and functionality but feature different printed designs.
Both are made from clear molded polycarbonate, measure 6.7 inches (17 cm) tall by 3.14 inches (8 cm) wide, and are designed to display both LEGO Botanicals bouquets and fresh flowers. At $7.99 each, the only real decision is which design better matches your style.
LEGO Botanical Vase – Brick Pattern
The Brick Pattern vase features white LEGO brick graphics wrapped around the outside. It has a more playful look that immediately stands out as LEGO merchandise.
Best for:
- Collectors who want a recognizable LEGO display
- Colorful LEGO flower arrangements
- Displaying alongside other LEGO sets
LEGO Botanical Vase – Flower Pattern
The Flower Pattern vase uses delicate botanical illustrations inspired by the LEGO Botanicals collection. The design is much more subtle, allowing the flowers to become the main focal point.
Best for:
- Home decor that doesn’t immediately look like LEGO
- Living rooms, entryway tables, and dining rooms
- Softer floral arrangements
Quick Comparison
| Feature | Brick Pattern | Flower Pattern |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $7.99 | $7.99 |
| Material | Clear molded polycarbonate | Clear molded polycarbonate |
| Size | 6.7 × 3.14 × 3.14 in | 6.7 × 3.14 × 3.14 in |
| Holds LEGO bouquets | ✅ | ✅ |
| Holds fresh flowers | ✅ | ✅ |
| Internal support | ❌ No | ❌ No |
Functionally, they’re identical. After comparing both in person, I don’t think you can make a wrong choice. The decision really comes down to whether you prefer a more playful LEGO-inspired design or a cleaner vase that blends into your home decor.
Availability and Where to Buy the LEGO Botanicals Vases
The official LEGO Botanical Vase – Brick Pattern and LEGO Botanical Vase – Flower Pattern are now available, although availability still varies by region.
I spent almost a week checking different Target stores before finally finding both. If you don’t see them at your local store yet, it’s worth checking another location since inventory seems to be arriving gradually.

Looking for an alternative?
If you can’t find the official vases yet, LEGO also provides instructions for a brick-built vase using Pick a Brick parts.
👉 Build your own LEGO vase with Pick a Brick (parts + instructions)
The Pick a Brick version is a fun display project, but it creates a completely different look. The official vases are designed to blend into your home decor, while the brick-built version embraces the classic LEGO aesthetic.
This is exactly what makes these new polycarbonate LEGO Botanicals vases interesting. It feels like LEGO is trying to move away from “build it yourself” solutions into something that looks more like real home decor.
The only question is whether they solved the right problem.
What Makes These LEGO Botanicals Vases Different?
Unlike a standard glass vase, these official LEGO Botanicals vases were designed specifically with LEGO flower bouquets in mind. Their proportions are intended to fit the length of LEGO stems, helping bouquets look more balanced without needing an oversized container.
Both versions are made from clear molded polycarbonate, making them lighter and more durable than glass. They’re also decorated with subtle printed graphics that complement the LEGO Botanicals collection without distracting from the flowers.
However, one feature is noticeably absent.
Neither vase includes an internal support system to separate or secure individual stems. If you’ve built LEGO Botanicals before, you know that’s often the biggest challenge when arranging a bouquet. The official vases focus on presentation rather than organization.
Whether that’s enough depends on what you’re looking for. If your priority is a cleaner-looking display, these vases immediately offer a more cohesive presentation than using a random vase from home. If your goal is maximum stability, you may still need another solution.
👉 I’m currently testing both vases with several LEGO Botanicals bouquets. Once I’ve spent more time with them, I’ll update this article with a link to my full hands-on review.
What These LEGO Botanicals Vases Solve (and What They Don’t)
The official LEGO Botanicals vases address a few common frustrations LEGO flower builders have, but they aren’t designed to solve every display challenge.
If you’ve ever placed a LEGO bouquet in a random vase, you’ll probably appreciate some of the improvements these offer. At the same time, there are a few limitations worth knowing before you buy.
What They Do Well
Designed for LEGO Botanicals bouquets
Unlike many household vases, these are proportioned specifically for LEGO flower stems, helping arrangements look more balanced without needing an oversized container.
A cleaner, more cohesive display
Whether you choose the Brick Pattern or Flower Pattern version, both vases were designed to complement the LEGO Botanicals collection. They look much more intentional than using a random vase from around the house.
More durable than glass
Because they’re made from molded polycarbonate, they’re less likely to break if they’re accidentally knocked over. That makes them a practical choice for bookshelves, desks, and other high-traffic areas.
Suitable for LEGO flowers or fresh flowers
Another nice bonus is that these aren’t limited to LEGO Botanicals. They can also be used as everyday flower vases if you want a display piece that serves more than one purpose.
What They Don’t Solve
No built-in stem support
Neither vase includes an internal grid or divider. That means stems are still free to move inside the vase, just as they would in a standard container.
No built-in spacing
Without anything separating the stems, creating a balanced arrangement is still entirely up to you. Builders who enjoy styling their bouquets probably won’t mind, but it doesn’t simplify the process.
Not designed as an organization system
These vases are designed to display your LEGO Botanicals collection, not organize it. If you’re looking for something that locks stems into place or helps create professional-looking arrangements automatically, you’ll likely want a different type of display solution.
Quick Takeaway
These official LEGO Botanicals vases focus on presentation rather than structure. If your priority is a vase that looks like it was made for LEGO flowers, they do that well. If you’re hoping they’ll completely solve shifting stems or improve stability, that’s a different question, and one I’ll answer in my dedicated hands-on review.
Tips for Displaying LEGO Botanicals in These Vases
Whether you choose the Brick Pattern or Flower Pattern vase, a few simple adjustments can make your arrangement look much more natural.
Unlike real flowers, LEGO stems stay exactly where you place them. Spending an extra minute adjusting the height, angle, and spacing of each stem can make the finished bouquet look much fuller and more balanced.
Here are a few tips that work well with official LEGO Botanicals vases:
- Place taller stems toward the back to create depth.
- Vary the height of the flowers instead of keeping everything level.
- Rotate larger blooms outward so they don’t hide smaller flowers.
- Mix different flower sets to create a fuller arrangement with more texture.
- Leave a little open space instead of packing every stem tightly together.
One thing I’ve learned from building dozens of LEGO Botanicals arrangements is that the vase is only part of the display. How you arrange the flowers has just as much impact as the vase itself.
