A few weeks ago I posted my results after combining the foliage from two 11512 sets. That got a solid amount of traction and I included in my description how I had hoped to figure out how to double the pot as well.

She was kind enough to comment that she posted an MOC on rebrickable that was exactly what I was hoping for, a double pot!

I had a birthday coming up so I asked for two more sets and ordered up the few missing pieces I’d need to complete her build. I finally finished it today and it looks amazing. I went ahead and modified her MOC a little and extended the feet of the pot again to give it a bit more elevation, and I’d seen on her profile that she posted some alternative design ideas for the sides of the pot and I was able to use some spare pieces from one of the 4 sets I’ve now collected to give the pot an even more decorative appearance.

This build looks awesome and I’m super happy with how it’s turned out. I hope you all enjoy it as well.

I’ve been wondering what it would look like if somebody were to buy multiple sets of the golden pothos and combined them together, either to make a larger pot somehow or just increase the length or amount of foliage present.

Well, I answered my own question. Yesterday while shopping at Costco I found these after having seen them offered for back order on LEGO’s website. “Hooray! Finally I can add this lovely set to my collection!” I thought to myself. Anyway, I decided to grab two sets so I could try and combine them.

I started off by building the version with the two long dangling stems from set number 1, which was nice but left a lot to be desired. The reviews stating the price to piece ratio are pretty spot on. $98 and some change later I was able to build it as it should’ve been from the jump. I took the little stem attachment pieces from set number 2 and added 4 of those around the “dirt” base. This increased my options for stem placement to make the next step easier. I then took all the foliage pieces from set number 2 and modified the existing stems to be a bit longer and with extra leaves. After that I added extra tendrils and increased the height of some of the initial starting tendrils. I also saw fit to extend the legs of the pot stand by poaching pieces from set number 2.

All in all, I’m satisfied with the outcome and am still waiting and hoping to see somebody, smarter than I, do a larger version of the pot.
