Grevillea pectinata
Grevillea pectinata is a spreading shrub from southern Western Australia, grown for its comb-like leaves and mauve-pink to red and cream-to-yellow flowers. The sources describe the species; as a Grevillea it is best in full sun with excellent drainage.
Grevillea pectinata, commonly known as comb-leaf grevillea, is a species of flowering plant in the family Proteaceae and is endemic to the south of Western Australia. It is a spreading shrub with divided, comb-like leaves and mauve-pink to red and cream-coloured to yellow flowers with a red to deep pink style.
