About

Melaleuca barlowii 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 M. conothamnoides with its purple pom-pom flower heads but is a more erect shrub with different leaves and the fruiting clusters have a different shape.

Where it grows

This melaleuca occurs in the Mullewa and Perenjori districts in the Avon Wheatbelt and Yalgoo biogeographic regions. It grows in sand and clay loam in shrubland and in roadside reserves.
