(Cutting Grown)
Grevillea rivularis is a rare Aussie native that makes plant hunters sit up and take notice. Endemic to a tiny stretch of New South Wales near Nowra, it’s critically endangered in the wild but a gem in cultivation, prized for both its beauty and toughness.
Growing 6–10 feet tall and wide, its fine, ferny foliage (with just a hint of spike) adds elegant texture to any garden. The real spectacle comes in warmer months, when clusters of pink to purple toothbrush-style flowers cascade from the shrub, buzzing with birds and pollinators.
Tough, adaptable, and surprisingly easy to grow in full sun with well-drained soil, it proves that endangered doesn’t have to mean delicate.

Purchased this Grevillea mainly for the (eventual) purplish flowers, but the foliage is definitely a highlight in the garden. In another plug for the health of the plants that are grown at WM, check out the photo attached. Plant is in a 22" diameter pot; bought as a 'Big Fella' less than a year ago, it is now double the size of one from a different nursery that I lost last year at 4 years old, which started at the same size as the WM plant. Really anticipating the bloom on this one!
Always a treat every time another order arrives— such beautiful plants, impeccably packed! No hesitation buying again
Plant arrived, as usual, in excellent health. I love the prickly foliage, and hopefully the flowers when they come.
I have a lot of Grevilleas but nothing like this. Foliage is almost fern.like - can't wait to see it grow
Beautiful plant well packaged.
