The Noongar name for the plant is mindiyet.[2] Hardy and adaptable, with a dense crown of leaves and prolific heads of pink or purple flowers in late spring and summer, it is one of the most commonly cultivated melaleuca shrubs. DescriptionMelaleuca nesophila is a large shrub or small tree growing to {{convert|4.7-6|m|ft|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} in height by {{convert|4-5|m|ft|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} in width. It has greyish-white, papery bark and a dense crown which often reaches to the ground. Its leaves are arranged alternately, {{convert|11-26|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long, {{convert|4-9|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} wide, flat, elliptic to narrow egg-shaped with rounded ends.[3][4]The lavender to rose pink "pom-pom" flowers appear over a long period from spring to mid-summer. The flowers are arranged in heads or short spikes on the ends of branches which continue to grow after flowering and sometimes also in the upper leaf axils. The heads are up to {{convert|30|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} in diameter and contain between 2 and 20 groups of flowers in threes. The fruit are woody capsules {{convert|3-5|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} long, arranged in roughly spherical clusters about {{convert|20|mm|in|sigfig=1|abbr=on}} in diameter.[3][4][5] Taxonomy and namingMelaleuca nesophila was first formally described in 1862 by Ferdinand von Mueller in Fragmenta Phytographiae Australiae[6] from a specimen collected on the rocks of the Doubtful Islands near Bremer Bay by Augustus Oldfield.[7] The specific epithet (nesophila) is from the Ancient Greek nesos meaning "an island"[8] and phílos meaning “dear" or "beloved",[9] referring to the location of the type specimen.[3]Distribution and habitatMelaleuca nesophila occurs in the Gairdner River and East Mount Barren districts as well as nearby offshore islands, in the Esperance Plains biogeographic region. It grows in sand near quartzite rocks, usually in dense scrub.[10]EcologyThis species is naturalised in some parts of Victoria where it is considered a serious environmental weed because it replaces indigenous vegetation.[11] ConservationThis species is classified as "not threatened" by the Government of Western Australia Department of Parks and Wildlife.[10] Use in horticultureMelaleuca nesophila is cultivated as an ornamental plant by plant nurseries, for use in gardens and drought tolerant landscaping. It is planted as a flowering shrub, or with training, as a small ornamental tree.[5] It grows in full sun to part shade, in sandy or clay loam soils. Once established, it will tolerate extended dry periods as well as coastal conditions.[12][13]References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.theplantlist.org/tpl/record/kew-123790|title=The Plant List: A Working List of All Plant Species}} {{Commons category|Melaleuca nesophila}}{{Taxonbar|from=Q6811065}}2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.kippleonline.net/bobhoward/plantsframe.html|title=Noongar names for plants|accessdate=11 December 2016|publisher=kippleonline.net|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20161120071826/http://www.kippleonline.net/bobhoward/plantsframe.html|archivedate=20 November 2016|df=}} 3. ^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|location=Canberra|isbn=9781922137517|page=252}} 4. ^1 {{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=200–201|edition=2nd}} 5. ^1 {{cite web|title=Melaleuca nesophila|url=http://www.smgrowers.com/products/plants/plantdisplay.asp?plant_id=1049|publisher=San Marcos Growers|accessdate=4 June 2015}} 6. ^{{cite book|last1=von Mueller|first1=Ferdinand|title=Fragmenta Phytographiae Australiae|date=1862|location=Melbourne|pages=113–114|url=https://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/item/7220#page/120/mode/1up|accessdate=4 June 2015}} 7. ^{{cite web|title=Melaleuca nesophila|url= https://biodiversity.org.au/boa/instance/apni/514408|publisher=APNI|accessdate=4 June 2015}} 8. ^{{cite book|last1=Quattrocchi|first1=Umberto|title=CRC world dictionary of plant names : common names, scientific names, eponyms, synonyms, and etymology|date=1999|publisher=CRC Press|location=Boca Raton, FL|isbn=0-8493-2673-7|page=1815|url=https://books.google.com.au/books?id=kaN-hLL-3qEC&pg=PA1815&lpg=PA1815&dq=nesos+greek&source=bl&ots=54asKX7Neo&sig=GrqeWuecijNabm_4KqZJWym9GOU&hl=en&sa=X&ei=A0JwVd32FMa7mwWKmIG4DA&ved=0CEQQ6AEwBg#v=onepage&q=nesos%20greek&f=false|accessdate=4 June 2015}} 9. ^{{cite book|last1=Brown|first1=Roland Wilbur|title=The Composition of Scientific Words|date=1956|publisher=Smithsonian Institution Press|location=Washington, D.C.|page=355}} 10. ^1 {{FloraBase|name=Melaleuca nesophila|id = 5943}} 11. ^{{cite web|title=Melaleuca nesophila|url=http://keyserver.lucidcentral.org/weeds/data/03030800-0b07-490a-8d04-0605030c0f01/media/Html/Melaleuca_nesophila.htm|publisher=Queensland Government: Weeds of Australia|accessdate=4 June 2015}} 12. ^{{cite web|title=Melaleuca nesophila|url=http://anpsa.org.au/m-nes.html|publisher=Australian Native Plant Society (Australia)|accessdate=4 June 2015}} 13. ^{{cite web|title=Melaleuca nesophila|url=https://www.anbg.gov.au/gnp/interns-2012/melaleuca-nesophila.html|publisher=Australian National Botanic Garden|accessdate=4 June 2015}} 11 : Melaleuca|Myrtales of Australia|Drought-tolerant plants|Drought-tolerant trees|Endemic flora of Australia|Garden plants of Australia|Ornamental trees|Plants described in 1862|Rosids of Western Australia|Endemic flora of Western Australia|Taxa named by Ferdinand von Mueller |
