Melaleuca diosmifolia (Green Honey-myrtle)

Melaleuca diosmifolia, commonly known as Green Honey-myrtle or Lime Bottlebrush, is a striking Australian native evergreen shrub admired for its vibrant lime-green, pom-pom-like flowers and fine-textured foliage. Flowering from spring through summer, the unusual blooms create a spectacular display while attracting bees, butterflies, and nectar-feeding birds to the garden.

Hardy, drought-tolerant once established, and well-suited to coastal conditions, Green Honey-myrtle is an excellent choice for native gardens, mixed borders, screening, and feature plantings. Its compact growth, low-maintenance nature, and distinctive flowering habit make it a standout addition to both contemporary and natural landscapes.
