Leptospermum rotundifolium

Leptospermum rotundifolium, commonly known as round-leaved tea tree,[2] is a species of flowering plants in the family Myrtaceae and is endemic to New South Wales, naturalised in Victoria and Western Australia.

It is an erect shrub with more or less circular leaves but with a small point on the tip, and relatively large pink or white flowers.

[6][7] In 1919, Edwin Cheel published a paper in the Journal and Proceedings of the Royal Society of New South Wales[8] crediting Frederick Arthur Rodway with raising the variety to species status as Leptospermum rotundifolium.

[9] Leptospermum rotundifolium grows in rocky places in shrubby heath or forest from near Sydney to Nerriga in near-coastal areas of New South Wales.

It has also been naturalised in a small area in the Shire of Manjimup in south-western Western Australia[10] and was recorded once in eastern Victoria.
