Grevillea robusta
 

This semi-deciduous fast-growing Australian native tree grows to 30 m and is the largest of all Grevillea species. Golden nectarladen flowers to 15 cm long are produced in abundance during spring. This species prefers a rich well-drained soil and full-sun for maximum flower development. The fern-like leaves are easily recognised and the bark is grey and deeply fissured. Bird attracting.
