About Grevillea crithmifolia R.Br.
Grevillea crithmifolia R.Br. is a dense shrub that typically reaches a height between 0.6 and 2.5 m (2 ft 0 in – 8 ft 2 in). Its branchlets are covered in shaggy hairs. The leaves are crowded and can have one of two forms, or occur as both forms on a single plant. One form is linear, measuring 10–20 mm (0.39–0.79 in) long and 0.7 mm (0.028 in) wide. The other form is divided, measuring 5–10 mm (0.20–0.39 in) wide overall with two to five narrowly oblong lobes that are 0.7–1.7 mm (0.028–0.067 in) wide. The flowers are pale pink to creamy-white, arranged in clusters on a 6–12 mm (0.24–0.47 in) long rachis, and the pistil is 4.8–6.0 mm (0.19–0.24 in) long. Flowering takes place from June to September, and the fruit produced is an elliptic to oval follicle 12–15 mm (0.47–0.59 in) long. This plant usually grows in near-coastal woodland or scrub, found between Wanneroo and Yalgorup National Park in south-western Western Australia's Swan Coastal Plain biogeographic region, with an isolated disjunct population located near Dongara.
