Description
Melaleuca quinquenervia commonly known as broad-leaved paperbark, the paperbark tea tree or niaouli, is a small to medium sized tree of the allspice family, Myrtaceae. The plant is native to New Caledonia, Papua New Guinea and coastal eastern Australia, from Botany Bay in New South Wales northwards, into Queensland and the Northern Territory. It is a weed in Florida.The paper like bark is used traditionally for making coolamons, shelter, wrapping baked food and lining ground ovens. I use it in my hanging baskets.

Thank you so much Karry..I really appreciate your comment. The bark is also very useful as it falls off and is great for lining hanging baskets.
