Is Heartlake Botanical Gardens the most stunning LEGO set of all time?

[@fae881]

I noticed a small detail in this new series. Emma always appears on the back of the instruction books, and in this series it’s Liann. Could there be a chance that Liann is Emma’s daughter? And both are Asian and look similar and have the same artistic interests.

[@zoeys3346]

I suspect Ollie might be related to Stephanie or her sister, and wonder if Andrea has a daughter or son now too. If Autumn is Mia's next generation!. I'm so excited to see how the OG are brought back alongside our new characters, even if they aren't parents. Olivia would be great to see again, with new space sets. Her anniversary set made me so thrilled!

[@Emil08YT]

Liann is gonna be Emma´s daughter, Leo i´m not sure. Probably Olivia, Stephanie is probably gonna be Ollie or Nova. Andrea might be Aliya or Zac. Liann is pretty safe to assume that she is gonna be Emma´s daughter in Liann´s house in winter i think.

[@ButteredBread201]

​@@Legofan4ever88Sorry to debunk your "Olly is Stephanie's son" theory but in Paisley and Olly's house, Olly's mum is a new character called Gwen.

[@ButteredBread201]

Also, Liann's mum is Michelle from this year's shopping centre

Hi Ellie, I had a thought. What if you played with the Darlington Family in the sims 4 again. There is a new family pack and I think it would be fun to see the triplets age up and maybe Sophie and Henry could have another baby?! 😊😊

[@paytenelverud4515]

You should

[@SimsyHazel]

Please could you play with the Darlingtons? I used to love them so much and I need my fix of nostalgia ❤️

Hi Ellie! I remember watching your videos as a kid and now I’m almost an adult. I want to thank you because you’re literally the reason I am able to speak English now 🙏🏾🙏🏾 it was hard for me as a foreigner but your videos motivated me! Thank you for this! 🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾

"I love them... to death!" OMG I felt that so much. Absolutely adore this set and am so floored by the quality of the Friends line reboot, feeling so much love from the designers!

I absolutely love this set it’s so cool and detailed , nice to see some more complex adult aimed Lego friends sets. I absolutely love Liann’s book and pen and I love the Nico minidoll . The butterflies are so cool aswell !

[@back2s0ul]

I got so excited when I saw the thumbnail 🥰It's beautiful! I feel like I've been waiting so long for Lego to make something like this, a building with interesting architecture, classy color scheme, and vibrant foliage. I'm also curious what a larger Creator Expert botanical garden set would look like.

[@Akito_gachaglobe]

I’m so happy you got it! My sister just adored it when we got it. It’s simply one of the most beautiful sets in Lego friends history And also, my sister is very talented. She built this set at age 7

[@dawncampbell4103]

7? Wow awesome

[@Bella-Ronaldo]

When I was 7 I was also like your talented sister 💖 I love LEGO 🌈

[@terrysilva6430]

Oh my this is gorgeous!! Reminds me of the botanical garden in my country of Bermuda, we can play with the butterflies too and lots of birds to be fed. Im definitely getting this set

[@LegoLifeSMP]

I never imagined Friends would make something as glorious. On my wishlist! If you got another do you think you could make the other half?

[@lilyq29]

And maybe customize it?

[@ellieV]

Probably? But I like it having an open back so I can see inside.

Oh my ❣️oh wow❣️oh wonder❣️Hello Ellie! I hardly know what to say… so much classic architecture, beauty and creativity. My botanical lil plastic Lego heart is singing! Also new colours, new pieces, new parts usage…. And frangipani my favourite tree …. But what hey green saxophones??? Haha love it. Need a bex and a lie down tho!

[@leannebear8842]

Ps.. Olive green?

[@ellieV]

Totally need a bex and a lie down after building this set! So many good things.

[@MollyNielsen-h9r]

i live in copenhagen, pretty close to the botanical garden, and it is very similar - only, i like the lego set more. It is so elegant. Great video as always.

[@bl0ndwave]

I must admit I happily screamed when I saw this video pop up in my feed, I've been awaiting this since the first pictures of it came out. I can say the excitement in your voice matches mine, and I have to agree with everything you've said - the muted colours, the details... just oh my god. I love the new pieces, I love the flowers, the ducks, the stickers... Everything about this set is perfect. What absolutely got me are the koi fish in the pond, I haven't noticed them in the promo pictures. So, so, so beautiful, the entirety of it. I'll check out if some shops have it here already. Let me just say, I think this is the best set of the 2023 summer wave. 💚 ~Wavey ;)

[@ellieV]

The koi were such a cool surprise! There’s always amazing things to find when you build a Friends set. Though I try not to look too hard at the promo pictures because I don’t want to ruin surprises.

[@bl0ndwave]

@@ellieV Indeed! I absolutely love them, and I'm glad they're included in this set because I don't have the sets they're in. In my case, I always study the pictures of the promo sets quite a lot because I'm trying to figure out which sets are really worth it 🥰

I believe the colour of the circular seated section is olive drab. It's a dull olive green.

[@ellieV]

Olive drab? That’s almost as sad a name as slime green 😂

This is the most STUNNING Lego Friends set i have ever seen in my entire life. I've been to the Botanical Gardens in Montreal.

[@aarondaas626]

Honestly your reviews are amazing, there’s so much love and enthusiasm to them, I’ve only ever brought 1-2 friends sets based on the detail and different accessories but this doesn’t feel like a friends set but a modular set, I have just order this set but it’s on back order. Absolutely amazing set, love your review Ellie, don’t ever change. “Can you litter gently, you can if your a petal” 😂 brilliant X

Woah! A transparent dome! I really don’t buy the new heartland stuff because I love Disney and I don’t buy the weird face print princesses nowadays. I wish you can get to building Disney Apartments again!

[@mina.richards.chronicles]

🥰 its stunning. Maybe the frangipani is placed there in an attempt to overwhelm the scent of the stinky killer plant house 😅 I bet the Lego peeps made this set with yourself and other long term Friends advocates in mind as a sort of, we see you, we appreciate you, here's a beautiful, more adult set with Friends in it.

[@ellieV]

I think so? They’re definitely aware that their product has been around for 10 years now, so they have grownup fans to cater to. Which I love!

Hi, I really like your video! Just fyi, plum blossoms is different from cherry blossoms as the first flower is from China while cherry blossoms (aka sakura) are from Japan. They also bloom in different seasons, you can see plum blossoms in winter and spring is the best season for cherry blossoms. My guess is that the pond area is for Asian plants since water lily is also from asia

[@carlottaholman9481]

This is a gorgeous set. $80 US seems reasonable for it. The sign stickers are great and I love that they are in black ( I keep hoping for stickers like this in zoo sets). I know you like the doll house style, but I almost want 2 of these so I could enclose it ( maybe hinge it so it could be open for play). With all those extra pieces, I wonder if you can design some new/other plants, hmmm. I love listening to your enthusiasm while you built this. TFS

There must be a water pump in the water feature briging the water to the second floor.

This is one of those rare sets which when you see the pictures on the box you know you want to have it sitting on a spot somewhere in your house. The closest thing in terms of uniqueness, understatement and style Lego has made as a Minidolls set I can think of is maybe Frozen's Ice Castle. The flower builds are surely a bonus.
