A Western Australian shrub in the Banksia genus (formerly Dryandra), the nominate subspecies of Banksia ionthocarpa. Grow it like other Western Australian banksias: full sun and very well-drained, low-nutrient soil.
Banksia ionthocarpa subsp. ionthocarpa is a subspecies of Banksia ionthocarpa. As an autonym, it is defined as encompassing the type material of the species. It was known as Dryandra ionthocarpa subsp. ionthocarpa until 2007, when Austin Mast and Kevin Thiele sunk all Dryandra into Banksia. As with other members of Banksia ser. Dryandra, it is endemic to the South West Botanical Province of Western Australia.
