''Melaleuca dissitiflora'', commonly known as creek tea–tree, is a plant in the myrtle family, Myrtaceae and is native to Australia. It occurs in the drier parts of Queensland, the Northern Territory, South Australia and Western Australia. It grows in places like sandy creek beds and rocky gorges but it may have potential as a more productive source of "tea tree" oil than the usual ''Melaleuca alternifolia''. It is closely related and very similar to ''Melaleuca linophylla''. Its leaves are very much alike, but its flowers are larger, the stamens are longer and there are more stamens per bundle than in that species. ==Description== ''Melaleuca dissitiflora'' is usually a tall, bushy shrub which grows to high, wide and has grey papery bark. Its leaves are arranged alternately, long, wide, glabrous except when very young, linear to elliptic in shape and tapering to a point. The flowers are white to cream-coloured and are arranged in spikes on the ends of branches which continue to grow after flowering. The spikes are up to in diameter, long and contain between 10 and 30 individual flowers. The petals are arranged in five bundles around the flower with 15 to 35 stamens per bundle. The flowering season is variable but often occurs in winter. The fruits that follow are woody capsules long arranged in roughly spherical clusters around the stem.〔〔
