Styphelia grandiflora is a shrub of the heath family, endemic to Carnarvon National Park in south-eastern Queensland, growing up to about 2 m with white tubular flowers. It is a rare native species of sandstone country and is rarely cultivated, so the key to growing it is to mimic its free-draining sandy, acidic conditions.
