Aldi has brought back its popular buildable flowers, priced at just £2.99, offering a low-cost alternative to Lego Botanical sets. The plastic brick flowers require no water or sunlight and are designed to stay looking fresh indefinitely.
The selection was shared on TikTok by user Steven (@Brickswithabudget), whose post has been viewed over 226,500 times. He noted the range includes a brick vase, which he described as 'very handy'. The sets come in various piece counts, allowing shoppers to choose based on their time or patience.
At £2.99 per pack, the Aldi flowers are significantly cheaper than Lego's equivalents. For instance, a twin pack of Lego roses costs £12.99, while two packs from Aldi total £5.98, saving over £7. The white Flower Vase, also made from plastic bricks, is available for £2.99.
Shoppers have reacted enthusiastically online. One said: 'I love that they’ve made a vase for them now!' Another warned: 'Tried to get some but mine had sold out already, so be quick if you want any!' A third commented: 'I love flowers, building these looks like it’d be fun!'
The SpecialBuy is available for a limited time in Aldi's middle aisles or near the front of stores across the UK. Builders can fit approximately five fully assembled flowers into each brick vase, which Steven described as 'a very simple build' that feels 'really sturdy'.
