''Melaleuca calyptroides'' is a plant in the myrtle family, Myrtaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It is similar to a number of other Western Australian melaleucas such as ''Melaleuca hollidayi'' with its almost cylindrical leaves, purple pom-pom flower heads and low growth habit but it has longer, wartier leaves and fewer flowers in the inflorescences. The floral cup and woody capsule from which it develops are longer than those of similar melaleucas. ==Description== ''Melaleuca calyptroides'' is a small, low growing shrub sometimes reaching a height of . Its leaves are arranged alternately, linear in shape, almost spherical in cross-section, long, wide with a leaf stalk the same width as the leaf blade. Most of the leaves are densely covered with distinct, raised oil glands. The flowers are a shade of pink to purple and appear singly or in small heads on the ends of branches which continue to grow after flowering, sometimes also in the upper leaf axils. The heads are up to in diameter and contain 1 or 2 groups of flowers in threes, sometimes up to 9 individual flowers. The petals are long, and fall off the flower as it opens. The stamens are arranged in bundles of five around the flower, usually with 8 to 15 stamens in each bundle. The flowering season extends from July to November and is followed by fruits which are woody capsules, long.〔
