Beautiful!

Do you know if it's blooming for any reason? I've had a well developed BRT for several years (I think you've commented on the thread) and it's never bloomed.

They do take a long time to bloom.
But...
The thornless cultivar blooms more often!
Anyway, this is an old BRT.

Dont suppose you can send me a cutting or spare a seed of the thornless cultivar variety BRT
It's Springtime here in New Zealand as well

Many times I have tried to send seeds from Brazil.
Most were destroyed by the Brazilian mail, as BRTs are protected here.
A bunch arrived to @Carol 83 after...TWO YEARS! They have sprouted and are doing ok apparently.
@leatherback was lucky enough to be here in São Paulo at Springtime and took a very nice rooted thornless to Germany.
Unfortunately now it is almost impossible to send them by mail, leading to wasted efforts and frustration. I am sorry...

But... I know for a fact that you have a very nice thornless BRT at home, I was there with you when you purchased it, remember?
Yes, when transport for personal use was still allowed. Sad they closed that little gap too.

And a little birdie told me it blooms...
Once so far. I am not sure how to trigger flowering :(

Hi Clicio,
Very nice flowering bonsai you have. I truly love this kind of flower. Thanks for sharing.
I have a thorn BRT bonsai to which I am patiently looking forward to its flowers!!
I have some 2 years old Monkeypod seedlings. I hope I can see them in flowers years to come.!
