[Anonymous]

I have a plant growing , looks like a honey myrtle and smells like dettol, anyone have any ideas on waht it is and what it could have been used for?

Would you have a picture at all? Makes ID 1000 times easier

I will get a photo for you thanks for the interest.

how do you insert an image

Don't be embarrassed! I still don't know how, after all these months, altho I can manage to insert them to the photo gallery (link at left)

I hope someone can help you - otherwise you could email the photo to me and i could post it in the gallery if you like.

Thanks but I don't know your e-mail. It isn't on your profile. Good grief you would think it was easy but it has me stumped.

just press the "email" button underneath her post i think - that sends an email to her address(via the web forum). You don't need to use your regular email program.

Lesandannie, I've sent you an email, so you can reply to that.
Then I'll post it ASAP for comment. The plant sure sounds intriguing!

You could also submit it to the local Herbarium.

Lesandannie sent me a pic and for me it looks like a Melaleuca species, i'll have to download it and post it...

Thanks Darcy - it's probably better to have it posted here (instead of the photo gallery). You're a gem.

i reckon it's a melaleuca..

i moved this to a different section, hope that's ok. yeah i reckon melaleuca, like darcy. Esp. if it smells like dettol! Melaleuca linariifolia?
