I've come across enough of these sort of fancy sets that I think they deserve their own thread.
For Architecture sets see: >>823

I'm definitely going to get one of the flower sets soon.

I really like the bonsai set!

I don't know where to start exactly. The set I got was the rose with baby's breath set >>1441 
I'm not sure if it was a good first set to experience the Botanicals theme since it, obviously, pretty one note and there's also a lot of repetition. All of the others I've seen either have only a few flowers of the same type or a huge bouquet of many different kinds. The roses are quite pretty though.

Despite it having a large number of pieces it went together very easy and quickly. Even though these floral sets are meant for adults and having a lot of bricks (this one had over 800) I think an older kid could put them together if they were the patient type, particularly since they can be made in stages instead of it being one single 800 piece construction. If you were getting one for a lego kid then I would pick one of the smaller floral sets or one that's more interesting like the bonsai one. The store also had a much smaller rose set that only had a couple of flowers.

One definite negative with these is that if the box doesn't prominently feature a container then that means that it doesn't come with one so you'll have to provide one yourself or build one. I haven't seen any lego vase sets yet either.

The rose petal bricks are really nice and if you were so inclined you could probably acquire a bunch of these sets to repurpose them for some custom build. I keep thinking roof tiles for some fantasy build. If you had a ton of money you could probably use them as scales for a giant dragon or something. Also I found it funny that the center of some of the roses are red cast versions of the lego whip minifig accessory.

And now I'm the proud owner of my first teal colored lego "jimmy tool". All of my others are orange.
