User's notes
Plantings along Federal Highway; this is not a local species and invades adjacent grassy woodland in the nature reserve; every second year or so FoMM volunteers remove young Melaleuca from the reserve.
I can't confirm the species because it is outside of my moderator territory.

Yes, this is very close to where we recently took out a thicket of saplings of this species inside the reserve.
