Learn About Your New Melaleuca linariifolia (Snow in Summer)
Melaleuca linariifolia – Snow in Summer is a hardy, evergreen Australian native shrub celebrated for its graceful form and striking seasonal flowers. With soft, slender leaves and a rounded upright habit, this plant delivers year-round texture and summer bloom drama — all with minimal maintenance.
Reaching a mature height and width of 2–4 metres, Melaleuca linariifolia forms a neat, bushy structure suited to feature planting, borders, informal screening, or mixed native shrub designs. In summer, it bursts into massed clusters of fluffy white flowers that resemble falling snow — a standout display that gives this plant its common name.
Melaleuca linariifolia – Snow in Summer thrives in full sun to part shade, adapts well to a wide range of well-drained soils, and is drought-tolerant once established. It's also highly attractive to native birds and beneficial insects, making it a strong ecological performer in both urban and rural plantings.
With its combination of aesthetic value, low water needs, and native habitat benefits, Melaleuca linariifolia is an excellent choice for naturalistic designs, low-maintenance landscapes, and biodiversity-focused plantings.
