LEGO's houseplant lineup is getting a popular variegated species with a new leaf-molding technique. Confirmed via LEGO's official reveal and reported by Jay's Brick Blog and Brick Fanatics, LEGO Botanicals Hanging Golden Pothos (set #11512) releases August 1, 2026, priced at $59.99 USD with 372 pieces.
This is a confirmed release with locked pricing, so here's what's included.
LEGO's official reveal, as reported by Jay's Brick Blog, confirms the following:
This dual-molding technique, which debuted with the earlier 11510 Magnolia Branches set, lets LEGO produce genuinely variegated, two-toned leaf pieces rather than single-color plastic, giving the Golden Pothos build a more botanically accurate look than earlier plant sets could achieve. Real golden pothos plants are known specifically for their marbled yellow-and-green variegation, a pattern that's difficult to replicate convincingly with single-color molded pieces. Introducing a dedicated dual-molding process suggests LEGO's design team saw the species as enough of a signature entry to justify the extra tooling investment, rather than settling for an approximated single-tone leaf the way earlier variegated plants may have been simplified.
Since the dual-molding process debuted with the 11510 Magnolia Branches release, this Golden Pothos set marks its second confirmed use, suggesting LEGO intends the technique as an ongoing tool for the Botanicals line rather than a one-off experiment limited to a single set. That has a direct implication for future Botanicals releases: species with naturally variegated or multi-toned foliage, which previously might have been passed over in favor of simpler solid-color plants, become more viable candidates for future sets now that the molding technique exists and has been used twice.
Offering both a hanging two-vine build and a flatter four-vine arrangement means collectors can adapt the same 372-piece set to different shelf, corner, or tabletop layouts, rather than being locked into a single fixed display orientation. That kind of built-in flexibility is particularly useful for a hanging-vine plant like pothos, since real specimens are often displayed in a variety of orientations depending on available space, from trailing off a high shelf to spreading across a flatter surface.
For displaying either build configuration, EVORETRO's acrylic display risers add elevated shelf presence for a hanging arrangement.
For protecting the variegated leaf pieces from dust, EVORETRO's acrylic modular case keeps the marbled detail visible without buildup.
Releasing alongside the Dark Flower Arrangement set continues LEGO Botanicals' pattern of pairing complementary plant releases, giving collectors building out a full botanical shelf two simultaneous new options rather than a single standalone set. That pairing pattern has become a recognizable release rhythm for the Botanicals line specifically, with LEGO regularly bundling a hanging or trailing plant alongside a more upright or arranged floral set in the same wave, giving each release a complementary counterpart rather than launching in isolation.
LEGO Botanicals occupies a distinct niche within the broader catalog, appealing as much to home-decor and plant enthusiasts who may not otherwise buy LEGO sets as to traditional adult LEGO collectors. A permanently green, low-maintenance alternative to a living houseplant has real practical appeal for people who want the aesthetic of foliage without the watering, light requirements, or risk of a real plant dying, which is part of why the line has continued expanding species by species since its debut.
The Golden Pothos specifically is a natural choice for that expansion, since real pothos plants are among the most commonly kept houseplants due to their easy care and trailing growth habit, making this set's subject matter recognizable even to people who don't follow LEGO releases closely.
At 372 pieces and $59.99, this set sits in the middle of LEGO Botanicals' typical range, more substantial than the line's smaller single-stem offerings but well below the piece counts of Botanicals' larger arranged bouquets. That mid-tier scope suits a hanging vine plant well, since a pothos display doesn't need the piece density of a full floral arrangement to read convincingly, while still offering enough build time and detail to feel like a complete standalone project rather than a quick afterthought set.

372.
Yes, either as a two-vine hanging display or a four-vine flat-surface arrangement.
No, it debuted with the 11510 Magnolia Branches set; this is its second confirmed use.
A second new Botanicals set, Dark Flower Arrangement, releases the same day.
At $59.99, it sits in the line's mid-tier price range, above single-stem sets but below larger arranged bouquets.
The Hanging Golden Pothos brings a new marbled leaf technique and configurable display options to LEGO Botanicals, with a confirmed August 1 release. Deciding between the hanging or flat-surface build ahead of time makes for a smoother setup.
Having risers and a case ready keeps the finished plant display protected and well-positioned.
