Saw this ornamental Bonsai at the BBC Show in MNP, Mumbai on 29/3/13.

Tiny purple flowers.

Sorry for the bad pictures due to low light as the Bonsai were kept inside a hall.

Alka ji,

This is Blue Braya as you had correctly suggested earlier.

I saw a picture in one of the Bonsai brochures today.

But can't find any pictures or the botanical name on Searching.

This Bonsai plant still remains a mystery.

On a closer look, I could find green pods.

Another similar with yellow flowers.

Alka Ji,

Thanks for the suggested id.

It does look similar to my pictures.

Let us wait for experts to validate.

The plant with blue flowers still remains a mystery!

Hello

Can the plant posted in the original post here (the one with blue/purple flowers) be a species of Hovea?

Thanks and regards

To me it looks like a legume, Papilionoideae, not Braya which won't have such big petals. plus standard and keel can be seen, plus persistent calyx.

Gurcharan Ji,

I think we finally got it right. It took 8 years to correctly identify this plant.

It was bothering me for so long.

Thanks for all the help and resurfacing it.
