Melaleuca venusta is a unique shrub in the myrtle family that is found only on the west coast of Western Australia. With its silvery leaves and clusters of pink to purple flowers, this shrub is a beautiful addition to any landscape. It is a relatively small shrub, growing up to 1.5 meters in height, and its leaves are covered in silky hairs, giving it a distinct silvery grey color. The flowers, which appear in October and November, are arranged in clusters and have a pinkish mauve to purple color that fades to white. This species is only found in the Kalbarri district and is not considered threatened. While it is not commonly cultivated, its attractive flowers and foliage make it a potential ornamental shrub for dry Mediterranean climates.
