Description

Grevillea involucrata, also known as Lake Varley grevillea, is a low-growing shrub which is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It grows up to 0.5 metres in height and produces pink flowers between June and October (early winter to mid spring) in its native range. The species was formally described in 1974 by botanist Alex George in Nuytsia, based on plant material collected between Hyden and Lake Varley.
