Really nice build, clever techniques for the trunk especially.
It comes with green leafy foliage and pink cherry blossom made up mostly of frogs.
I built the green version and will swap to blossom in spring. It is built around little foliage modules so once each set is built it's just four bits to swap, rather than every piece individually.
I think it tends to be on sale a lot so if you see it and are tempted it gets a big thumbs up from me.

Personally I’m not a fan of the Technics range, it feels a little too serious to me somehow, like it loses the joy of the standard stuff a bit.
