Cajeput tree is a common name used for certain classification of tree that has a white spongy bark that is flexible and can easily flake off the trunk. The Cajeput tree is of the genus ''Melaleuca'', native to Australia and is commonly known in North America as the Tea Tree. The name "Cajeput tree" is primarily used for the species ''M. cajuputi'', ''M. leucadendra'', ''M. linariifolia'', ''M. viridiflora'' and ''M. quinquenervia''. Other names for these trees are the paperbark tree, punk tree, or the white bottle brush tree. Similar subtropical trees from the eucalyptus family are evergreens with pointed leaves and white, red or green flowers. Aborigines of Australia often used the cajeput tree bark for shields, canoes, roofing material and timber.〔(Phadia.com: Allergen-information/Tree-pollen/Melaleuca/Cajeput Tree )〕 == Invasive species in Florida ==
