Melaleuca liniariifolia just opening it's beautiful display.
The tree is commonly known as Snow-in-Summer or Narrow-leaved Paperbark, and flowers late Spring or early Summer.

Stephen, David, Lynn and Karen, thanks so much for your comments. Unfortunately the beauty of the flowers is short lived, as invariably it is followed by the onset of Spring thunderstorms.

Thanks for your comments Robert and Elfriede.
Following recent thunderstorms, the floral display is unfortunately now rather bedraggled.
