Grevillea paniculata is a shrub which is endemic to the south-west of Western Australia. It grows to between 0.6 and 3 metres in height and produces white, cream or yellow flowers between June and November (early winter to late spring) in its native range.[1][2]

The species was first formally described in 1845 by botanist Swiss Carl Meissner in Plantae Preissianae in 1845, based on plant material collected by Ludwig Preiss near York.[3]
