Dear all,

One of my earlier posts from Lalbagh, Bangalore.

During recent visit, I found tiny white flowers resembling Bottle Brush.

These flowers were upright and not hanging down.

Adding pictures taken recently on 16/3/13., one with the tiny flower

Nidhan ji, Umesh ji,

Could this be Melaleuca linariifolia? Common name Snow-in-Summer

I find this to be the closest to my pictures.

A reply:

" Please check for M.alternifolia also, though I am not sure." from Mahadeswara ji.

[Aarti S. Khale]

Garg ji, Mahadeswara ji,

Thank you for follow up and a possible id to my small tree from Lalbagh.

I tried searching for Melaleuca alternifolia, as suggested.

The flowers are much longer in the pictures as seen in the search, resembling White Bottle Brush.

These flowers were very tiny and standing upright.

Regards,

Aarti 

[Shrikant Ingalhalikar]

This is Melaleuca bracteata F. Muell. Trees with green foliage have been found to flower as seen in the pictures. A variety with golden foliage (Golden Bottle-brush) does not seem to flower.

[Aarti S. Khale]

Shrikant ji,

Many thanks for the long pending id of this Melaleuca from Lalbagh.

Feedback from another thread: "i am a bit confused on the identity of a species of Melaleuca. there was a thread on efloraindia  https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/indiantreepix/4K6eseRr-kQ where the species has been identified as Melaleuca bracteata. however the foliage for the species is light green. another species is with dark green foliage and young leaves in reddish bronze coloration. is it a different species like may be Melaleuca linarifolia. Alok " 'I have recorded just one planted tree in Botanical Garden JNJ College, Nadiad, while working for "Trees of Gaujrat" Gujarat State Forest Department sponsored project. Melaluca lucodendron growing near waste water flowing area is seen as 60 ft tall tree with CBH approx. 2.7m. The bark of it is papery but many layers of that papery skin forms a thick (3-4 inch), soft (one can punch to see slight depression) greyish-pink bark, The flowers and leaves appears near to Eucalyptus, where dark green, elongated lanceolate leaves having white several filamentous white, sweet-scented flowers in short terminal or axillary cymes. regards,  -- Dr. Jitendra Gavali '

Aarti

missed your earlier postings in this case

maleluca linariifolia 

if it meets these requirements: i quote 

"

Stamens united at their bases into 5 groups opposite the petals — Melaleuca:

Bark dark, hard; stamens whitish — Melaleuca styphelioides
Bark more or less whitish, sponge-rubbery:

Leaves usually less than ⅛-inch wide; stamens white — Melaleuca linariifolia 
Leaves mostly ¼-inch wide or greater; stamens purple — Melaleuca nesophila " end quote

url for this quote is : 

this is why often just one more picture with your own finger nail or 

a writing pen alongside a leaf is a quick fix if no ruler is available.

i can not judge the leaf width here, though the white stamens are indeed present

Also dont see bark 

or overall habit

so with all these  restrictions, i must say, 

though i believe in Ashutosh's acumen in botany diagnosis

i must just be restricting the naming to: possibly m. linariifolia

using these two pictures only for a definitive diagnosis may not be scientific.
