"Tall shrub or tree to 7 m high with fibrous-papery bark. Leaves alternate, flat, linear to narrow-elliptic, 8–18 mm long, 1–2 mm wide..." (PlantNet)

Melaleuca decora has a whitish papery bark and produces cream coloured flowers.

Melaeuca decora inhabits swamps and low lying areas in forests. Access for seed collection is very good. In our experience the seed yields are only worthwhile during or after higher rainfall years. Some use is made of this taxon in mining rehabilitation, mostly in NSW to date.
