The image depicts a botanical illustration of the Melaleuca leucadendron plant, showcasing three distinct forms of its flowers. The illustration is detailed and colorful, with a light beige background. The flowers are arranged in clusters, with the top section featuring large, fluffy, yellowish-white blooms, the middle section displaying white flowers, and the bottom section showing vibrant red and pink flowers. Each flower cluster is surrounded by elongated, green leaves with a glossy texture. The branches are reddish-brown, adding contrast to the green leaves and colorful flowers. The illustration is framed by a thin red border, and at the bottom, there is a caption that reads Three Forms of Melaleuca Leucadendron, Linn.
