Grevillea nudiflora is a species of flowering plant in the family Proteaceae and is endemic to the south coast of Western Australia. It is a prostrate to low, spreading shrub, usually with linear leaves, and with small groups of red and yellow flowers often close to the ground on long flowering stems.
Grevillea nudiflora is a prostrate to spreading shrub that typically grows up to high and wide, or sometimes up to high. Its leaves are usually linear, long and wide with the edges turned down, concealing most of the lower surface. The flowers are arranged in groups of two to six on long trailing peduncles up to long, occasionally on shorter peduncles within the foliage, on a rachis long. The flowers are red or deep pink with yellow or grey blotches, the pistil long. Flowering occurs from July to November, sometimes in other months, and the fruit is an erect follicle long.[1]
Grevillea nudiflora was first formally described in 1856 by Carl Meissner in de Candolle's Prodromus Systematis Naturalis Regni Vegetabilis from specimens collected by James Drummond in the Swan River Colony.[2] [3] The specific epithet (nudiflora) means "bare-flowered".[4]
This grevillea grows in woodland, forest and heath from near Albany to Cape Arid National Park and inland as far as Mount Barker and Ravensthorpe in the Esperance Plains, Jarrah Forest and Mallee bioregions of southern Western Australia.
Grevillea nudiflora is listed as "not threatened" by the Western Australian Government Department of Parks and Wildlife
