Balaustion grandibracteatum is a species of flowering plant in the family Myrtaceae and is endemic to inland Western Australia. It is a shrub with mostly narrowly oblong to elliptic leaves and white flowers with 14 to 27 stamens.
Balaustion grandibracteatum has been recorded between the Southern Cross area to near Hyden and Frank Hann National Park in the Avon Wheatbelt, Coolgardie and Mallee bioregions of inland Western Australia. Subspecies grandibracteatum has been recorded from west of Southern Cross to Yellowdine and the Parker Range area where it often grows in yellow sand in the Avon Wheatbelt and Coolgardie bioregions. Subspecies junctura is found from the Mount Holland to the Forrestania area in the Coolgardie and Mallee bioregions and subsp. meridionalis occurs from the Mount Gibbs to beyond the eastern end of Frank Hann National, where both subspecies grow in sandy soils, sometimes with lateritic gravel or granite cobbles in shrubland.
