Those who like this set for parts would also probably also like 9650, the
scenery resource set, which makes a perfect supplemental parts set to the

I think there is an extra carrot top and plant stem.  No more than one ever
shows up at a time in any pic, and the set only comes with a single sprue of
four flowers which wouldn't be sufficient to petal two flower stems.
