Designed for a balcony space, the garden is eye-catching and functional. Constructed entirely from bricks, it has been meticulously planned and built to scale. The vibrant colours replicate the beauty of nature with flowers such as fairy foxglove, aster, Welsh poppy and sunflowers. Unlike a living garden, these flowers will stay in bloom through every season, giving year-round enjoyment. Playful and unique, this concept garden has been designed for those who admire beautiful gardens but who may not have the time, energy, or motivation to maintain the real thing. It is made by LEGO lovers, for LEGO lovers, offering the user endless opportunities to be creative and have fun.
