BottlebrushesCallistemon and Melaleuca species, hybrids and cultivarsFamily: MyrtaceaeThese two genera have been grouped together here because they are hard to distinguish by the ordinary gardener. Some authorities believe the two genera should be formally merged. Consequently you may find Callistemon species referred to as synonymous with Melaleuca. Because The Queensland Herbarium has decided to accept the merger, you're especially likely to see Callistemon species listed as Melaleuca in local publications and native plant nurseries in this state. These plants were discussed in greater detail in the 07-10-2022 edition of Get Results Gardening. If you garden in Australia, especially the warmer regions that allow you to grow tropical and subtropical plants, you will find plenty of other useful information in this weekly email publication.
