Melaleuca
pustulata is an uncommon, medium to large native
shrub or small tree with narrow alternate leaves. The
flowers are usually yellowish. It is very similar to M. ericifolia.
The most obvious difference is the habitat - M.
ericifolia grows on the shores of estuaries and river
banks, and occasionally in boggy areas in wet places,
whereas M. pustulata grows in dry heathland near the
east coast (rarely along stream banks). It grows in dry
areas near the east coast.
