Grevillea maccutcheonii
McCutcheon's grevillea is a densely branched shrub from a single site in south-west Western Australia, known from only a handful of plants in the wild. It is valued in cultivation for its reddish-green flower clusters and adapts well to gardens, including humid eastern climates, provided the soil drains well and it gets full sun.
Grevillea maccutcheonii, commonly known as McCutcheon's grevillea, is a species of flowering plant in the family Proteaceae and is endemic to a single location in the south-west of Western Australia. It is a densely-branched shrub with three-lobed, stem-clasping leaves, and clusters of reddish-green flowers. The total population of the species was estimated in 2007 to be seven mature plants.
Unlike many Western Australian plants, McCutcheon's grevillea adapts well to cultivation, even in the eastern states, where summer humidity is often high. It grows best in well-drained soil in a sunny location.
McCutcheon's grevillea is restricted to the foot of the Whicher Range where it grows in moist, tall shrubland.
