Melaleuca irbyana (swamp tea-tree)

Wild stands around the junction of the Jimboomba - Mandolin Road and Ann Street, Jimboomba.

These stands of M. irbyana occur only in a geographically limited patch of southeast Queensland; on heavy, cracking clays developed from Mesozoic, Cainozoic and Quaternary sediments with impeded drainage, in Beaudesert, Boonah, Esk, Ipswich, Laidley and Logan Local Government Areas. The species has paperbark type bark, and the weepiness of the branchlets varies from tree to tree.
