Grevillea endlicheriana, also known as spindly grevillea, is a shrub which is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It grows to between 1 and 3 metres in height and produces white, pink or red flowers between July and November (mid winter to late spring) in its native range.[1][2]
The species was first formally described by botanist Carl Meissner in 1845, based on plant material collected from the Darling Scarp.[3]
