Kuntze Melaleuca urceolaris is a low, spreading shrub in the myrtle family Myrtaceae and is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia.

Although it is rare in cultivation, it is an attractive garden plant due to its soft foliage and white flowers which fade to pink or red.

[4][5] The specific epithet (urceolaris) is derived from the Latin urceus meaning "urn" or "pitcher"[6] referring to the shape of the fruit.

[2] Melaleuca urceolaris occurs in the Arrino-Jurien Bay-Gingin districts in the Avon Wheatbelt, Geraldton Sandplains, Jarrah Forest, Mallee and Swan Coastal Plain biogeographic regions.

[7] This species is described as "a handsome foliage shrub, spectacular in flower in good forms"[3] growing well in poor sandy soil in winter-rainfall, temperate to semi-dry areas.
