The bunga emas dan perak (lit. "golden and silver flowers", Thai: ต้นไม้เงินต้นไม้ทองRTGS: ton mai ngoen ton mai thong), often abbreviated to bunga mas (Jawi: بوڠا مس "golden flowers"), was a tribute sent every three years to the king of Ayutthaya (Siam) from its vassal states in the Malay Peninsula, in particular, Kelantan, Kedah, Pattani, Nong Chik, Yala, Rangae,[1]Kubang Pasu and Setul.[2] The tribute consisted of two small trees made of gold and silver, plus costly gifts of weapons, goods and slaves. [3]

There are several supposed origins of and reasons for the establishment of the tradition:
According to a Kedah source, the first time a bunga mas was sent, it was sent as a toy for a new-born Thai prince who was the grandson of Sultan of Kedah himself since his kin, a princess was married to the Thai king.
17th-century Kedah rulers considered it to be a token of friendship.
Thai kings since maintain that it was a recognition of their suzerainty instead.[3]
