Paperbarks (Melaleuca)

A large group of plants, generally small to medium sized trees, distinguishable by their paper like bark. Flowers are tiny with large stamens, similar to Bottlebrush (Callistemon). Bird, benifical insects and small mamals are all attracted to these flowers. They range in colour from white to mauve depending on species.
