Golden Grevillea

Grevillea chrysophaea is a spreading, or occasionally prostrate, shrub that typically grows to a height of 0.3–2.5 m (1 ft 0 in – 8 ft 2 in). Its leaves are oblong to almost linear, 15–60 mm (0.59–2.36 in) long and 3–15 mm (0.12–0.59 in) wide with the edges turned down or rolled under. The upper surface of the leaves is glabrous or softly-hairy and the lower surface is woolly to velvety hairy. The flowers are arranged in groups of two to eight on the ends of branchlets and are dull to golden yellow, the pistil 15–21.5 mm (0.59–0.85 in) long with a red or orange-red style. Flowering mostly occurs from June to November and the fruit is a hairy, elliptic follicle 11–13 mm (0.43–0.51 in) long.

Golden grevillea usually grows in eucalypt or banksia woodland in the Brisbane Ranges and in Gippsland in southern Victoria.
