Yes it is indeed a Guaiacum officinale, its purple bluish small flowers looks beautiful. This tree is very suitable for Bonsai because of its slow growing habit, small leaves and flowers and withstand hard prunning. for its propagation, carefully look under its canopy, you will find naturally grown seedlings in August-September. It is difficult to grow seedlings in nursery by collecting seeds. I found this tree in Maharajbag, Nagpur.
