It is a distinctive shrub, recognised by its tiny, crowded leaves, corky bark and pink flowers that appear along lengths of leafless parts of the branches. DescriptionMelaleuca suberosa is a small shrub with grey, corky, furrowed bark and which grows to a height of {{convert|1|m|ft|sigfig=1|abbr=on}}. Its branches and leaves are glabrous except when very young. The leaves are arranged alternately, {{convert|3-6.5|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long, {{convert|0.8-1.5|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide, crowded near the ends of the branches, very narrow oval in shape, oval in cross section and with small lumps or tubercles on the upper surface.[1]The flowers are a shade of deep pink to purple and are arranged on the sides of older branches and partly buried in them so that only the petals, style and stamens appear above the wood. The petals are {{convert|2-3.2|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long and fall off as the flower ages. The stamens are arranged in five bundles around the flowers and each bundle contains 9 to 15 stamens. Flowering occurs between July and January and is followed by fruit which are woody capsules {{convert|2-3|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long, roughly spherical in shape, arranged along the branches.[1][2][3] TaxonomyCalothamnus suberosa was first formally described in 1844 by Johannes Conrad Schauer in Plantae Preissianae.[4][5] It was placed in the present genus as Melaleuca suberosa in 1931 by Charles Austin Gardner in Enumeratio Plantarum Australiae Occidentalis.[6] The specific epithet (suberosa) is a Latin word meaning "corky"[7] referring to the corky bark of this species.[1]Distribution and habitatMelaleuca suberosa occurs between the Albany district and the Cocklebiddy district in the Esperance Plains, Jarrah Forest and Mallee biogeographic regions.[8] It grows in sandy, stony or gravelly soils on plains, swampy flats and low ridges.[9]ConservationThis species is classified as "not threatened" by the Government of Western Australia Department of Parks and Wildlife.[8] Use in horticultureMelaleuca suberosa is hardy in southern parts of Australia, preferring a sunny situation. It is frost hardy and tolerates a range of soils but is difficult to grow in tropical or sub-tropical climates.[3][10]References1. ^1 2 {{cite book|last1=Brophy|first1=Joseph J.|last2=Craven|first2=Lyndley A.|last3=Doran|first3=John C.|title=Melaleucas : their botany, essential oils and uses|date=2013|publisher=Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research|page=348|location=Canberra|isbn=9781922137517}} {{Taxonbar|from=Q15371597}}2. ^{{cite book|last1=Holliday|first1=Ivan|title=Melaleucas: a field and garden guide|date=2004|publisher=Reed New Holland Publishers|location=Frenchs Forest, N.S.W.|isbn=1876334983|pages=276–277|edition=2nd}} 3. ^1 {{cite web|title=Melaleuca suberosa|url=http://anpsa.org.au/m-sub.html|publisher=Australian native plant society (Australia)|accessdate=25 April 2015}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=Calothamnus suberosa|url=https://biodiversity.org.au/boa/instance/apni/527861|publisher=APNI|accessdate=25 April 2015}} 5. ^{{cite book|last1=Lehmann|first1=J.G.C.|title=Plantae Presiiianae|date=1844|page=156|url=https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/page/498179#page/161/mode/1up|accessdate=23 April 2015}} 6. ^1 {{cite web|title=Melaleuca suberosa|url=https://biodiversity.org.au/boa/instance/apni/544484|publisher=APNI|accessdate=25 April 2015}} 7. ^{{cite book|last1=Brown|first1=Roland Wilbur|title=The Composition of Scientific Words|date=1956|publisher=Smithsonian Institution Press|location=Washington, D.C.|page =123}} 8. ^1 {{cite web|title=Melaleuca suberosa|url=https://florabase.dpaw.wa.gov.au/browse/profile/5973|publisher=Government of Western Australia Department of Parks and Wildlife|accessdate=25 April 2015}} 9. ^{{cite book|last1=Paczkowska|first1=Grazyna|last2=Chapman|first2=Alex R.|title=The Western Australian flora : a descriptive catalogue|date=2000|publisher=Wildflower Society of Western Australia|location=Perth|isbn=0646402439|page=398}} 10. ^{{cite book|last1=Wrigley|first1=John W.|last2=Fagg|first2=Murray|title=Australian native plants : a manual for their propagation, cultivation and use in landscaping|date=1983|publisher=Collins|location=Sydney|isbn=0002165759|page=269|edition=2nd}} 5 : Melaleuca|Flora of Western Australia|Plants described in 1944|Endemic flora of Western Australia|Taxa named by Johannes Conrad Schauer |
