Grevillea juniperina subsp. sulphurea

Dense weakly erect shrub to 2 m tall, or rarely prostrate; branches often initially spreading then arching upwards, columnar (leaves usually mostly clustered on short lateral branchlets); foliage often in pseudo-whorls.

Adult leaves linear to sublinear, 11–20 mm long, 0.6–1.5 (-1.8) mm wide; margins smoothly (rarely angularly) revolute; upper surface convex or pitched up to midvein, with midvein usually evident but often scarcely prominent and intramarginal veins often obscure; lower surface mostly concealed, subsericeous to sparsely so, especially along midline; juvenile plants with leaves broader (1.8–4.0 mm wide) and flatter, with margins less revolute, and sparsely hairy below.

Flower colour: perianth and style scarlet (rarely salmon pink or yellow), with a green style-end. Perianth openly subsericeous outside, with biramous hairs only. Pistil 21–27 mm long.


Flowering: Flowers mostly August–September, sporadically in other months.

Distribution and occurrence: Occurs in N.S.W., in the Central and Southern Tablelands, mainly on the catchments of the Cox's, Kowmung, Wollondilly and Shoalhaven Rivers, from Tallong (E of Marulan) to Berrima, and the south-western Blue Mtns (from Jenolan State Forest to Lidsdale, and on the Cox's R. where now possibly extinct).
