LEGO Money Tree (40648)

Product Information

The pot is red, and utilises some really interesting techniques for the sides, with the curves narrowing towards the base.

Money Tree is a small 336-piece model of a kumquat/tangerine/mini mandarin tree, which is another common sight around Chinese New Year.

I really like 40648 Money Tree, and how well it fits into LEGO’s growing botanical collection, despite it not being an official “Botanical”. The completed model stands about 17cm tall just about every frond is laden with either fruit, envelope or coin.In Chinese culture, tangerines are synonymous with luck and there 20 of them in the set although they use the pumpkin pieces.

Thanks to its smaller surface area, it will fit into smaller spaces too – which can’t be said for the likes of the LEGO Botanical Collection’s entries.

Money Tree is a seasonal model and one in line with the likes of the Chinese Traditional Festival range too, so don’t expect it to be available outside of LEGO.

Getting rid of the dust (and the old) creates space for good luck to enter our home, and who doesn’t want that? With so many exposed components, it is vital to preserve your LEGO brick centrepiece with a high-quality storage and display option. If the item comes direct from a manufacturer, it may be delivered in non-retail packaging, such as a plain or unprinted box or plastic bag. Growing up, cleaning for the new year was a family affair, and that’s a practice I continue today with my kids.
