Grevillea levis is a shrub which is endemic to Western Australia. It grows to between 1 and 2 metres in height and produces flowers which are white or cream, flushed with pink, in late autumn to mid spring (May to October in Australia). The species was first formally described by Olde & Marriott in 1994 from a type specimen collected from Mount Churchman. It occurs in south-western Western Australia in open heath and shrubland.[1][2][3]
