Tea tree oil is derived from leaves of Melaleuca alternifolia and M. linearifolia (Myrtaceae), native to the east coast of New South Wales. To meet the Australian standard for tea tree oil the terpinen-4-ol content must be at least 30% while that of the oxidised terpene 1,8 dneole must not exceed 15% (Williams et al. 1988). The chemo-types of tea tree oil from natural stands is genetically determined, so that all commercial plantations are started from seed known to be of the right chemotype. Other terpene constituents of tea tree oil are the alcohol a-terpineol, hydrocarbons a-pinene and (3-pinene, p-cymene and y-terpinene, and sesquiterpenes including the unique compound viridflorene (Penoel 1990). Terpenin-4-ol is also a major ingredient in marjoram—Marjorana hortensis (Lamiaceae).
