Grevillea rubiginosa is a New Caledonian shrub or small tree in the Protea family, grown mainly in warm, humid, frost-free areas for its cream flowers and red-backed leaves. Give it good drainage and a sunny spot, as it tolerates a range of soils in its native habitat.
Grevillea rubiginosa is a species of flowering plant in the family Proteaceae and is endemic to south-eastern New Caledonia.
Grevillea rubiginosa is endemic to the southern half of the island of New Caledonia, where it receives 900–3,000 mm (35–118 in) of annual rainfall. It grows from 0 to 1,000 metres (3,300 ft) above sea level in a variety of soil types and habitats including gravelly loam in scrub or open forest, schist and skeletal soil on rocky ridges and slopes and alluvial sand along watercourses such as streams.
