Grevillea lavandulacea Grevillea lavandulacea is a native of southern Australia.<br />
<br />
It is a shrub growing 20 cm high to 1 m spread. A hardy, spreading groundcover with light green foliage and dynamic, pretty flowers produced over a long period from early autumn to spring. Very attractive to our smaller native honeyeaters. This is cultivar &#039;Emily&#039;. <br />
<br />
UPDATE March 2021, I don&#039;t know how I got the ID on this one incorrect as they look so very different, it is not Grevillea pinaster but Grevillea lavandulacea.<br />
