Description


Grevillea integrifolia is an erect shrub that typically grows to a height of 1–3 m (3 ft 3 in – 9 ft 10 in). Its leaves are egg-shaped with the narrower end towards the base, 10–50 mm (0.39–1.97 in) long and 2–10 mm (0.079–0.394 in) wide, sometimes curving upwards. The flowers are white to creamy-white, sometimes with a pink tinge and are arranged in cylindrical, sometimes branched clusters on a rachis 30–45 mm (1.2–1.8 in) long. The pistil is 5.5–6.5 mm (0.22–0.26 in) long and glabrous. Flowering mainly occurs from October to December and the fruit is a smooth, narrowly oblong follicle 9–11 mm (0.35–0.43 in) long.[2][3]


Taxonomy


The species was first formally described in Stirpium Australasicarum Herbarii Hugeliani Decades Tres in 1830 by Austrian botanist Stephan Endlicher who gave it the name Anadenia integrifolia.[4][5] The species was transferred to the genus Grevillea as Grevillea integrifolia by Swiss botanist Carl Meissner in 1856.[6] The specific epithet (integrifolia) means "whole-leaved", that it not toothed or lobed.[7]


Distribution and habitat


Entire-leaved grevillea usually grows in heath and occurs near Burracoppin, Quairading, Kukerin and Corrigin in the Avon Wheatbelt, Jarrah Forest and Mallee bioregions of south-western Western Australia.[2][3]
