About Grevillea ilicifolia (R.Br.) R.Br.
Grevillea ilicifolia (R.Br.) R.Br. is an erect to spreading or prostrate shrub, that usually grows 0.3–2 m tall and up to 3 m wide. Its leaves have variable shapes, most often egg-shaped in outline, measuring 18–101 mm long and 3–80 mm wide. Each leaf has between two and thirteen lobes, with every lobe being a sharply-pointed triangular to egg-shaped structure or tooth 7–50 mm long and 0.8–8 mm wide. The flowers are typically arranged in clusters along a rachis 20–50 mm long, and have a color range from green to cream and mauve to grey. The pistil of the flower is 19.5–25 mm long. The style is pink to red, sometimes orange to pale yellow, and has a green tip. Flowering takes place from September to November, and the fruit produced is a hairy follicle 10.5–16.5 mm long. This species grows in mallee, heath, or shrubland habitats across south-eastern South Australia, including the Eyre Peninsula and Kangaroo Island, western inland Victoria, and near Griffith in western New South Wales. The subspecies lobata is only found in north-western Victoria and the Murray and South-eastern botanical districts of South Australia.
