Melaleuca suberosa, commonly known as cork-bark honey-myrtle[2] or corky honeymyrtle,[3] is a shrub in the myrtle family, Myrtaceae, and is endemic to the south of Western Australia.

[4] The flowers are a shade of deep pink to purple and are arranged on the sides of older branches and partly buried in them so that only the petals, style and stamens appear above the wood.

Flowering occurs between July and January and is followed by fruit which are woody capsules 2–3 mm (0.08–0.1 in) long, roughly spherical in shape, arranged along the branches.

[6][7] It was placed in the present genus as Melaleuca suberosa in 1931 by Charles Austin Gardner in Enumeratio Plantarum Australiae Occidentalis.

It is frost hardy and tolerates a range of soils but is difficult to grow in tropical or sub-tropical climates.
