An evergreen, melaleuca alternifolia can grow to 22 feet (6.7 m) tall. It has layer upon layer of paper-like bark. The leaves are pointed and have a strong aroma when they are crushed. The flowers are produced in dense clusters along the stems, each flower with fine small petals and a tight bundle of stamens; flower colour varies from white to pink, red, pale yellow or greenish.
Melaleuca is closely related to Callistemon, the main difference between the genera being that the stamens are generally free in Callistemon but grouped into bundles in Melaleuca.
In the wild, Melaleuca plants are generally found in open forest, woodland or shrubland, particularly along watercourses and the edges of swamps.
