Propagation
Take semi hardwood from autumn to winter.

The foliage may cause skin irritations so care should be taken when pruning

Botanic information
Leaf: The leaves are up to 30 mm (1⅛) wide with margins that is deeply pinnatifid with pointed lobes when young. They are coppery-red maturing to dark glossy green and the underside is silky pubescent. The upper twigs are also coppery-red.

Flower: The small tubulate flowers have a long red style that is hooked at first then becomes straight. They are arranged in a one sided raceme that is up to 60mm (2⅜in) long and appears from late winter to early summer.

Fruit: The woody follicle is not commonly seen and the plant is normally reproduced vegetatively to maintain true to type.

Grevillea Species
A majority of this genus is endemic to Australia with a larger proportion found in south-western Western Australia. 
They consist of prostrate shrubs, shrubs and trees with a large range of foliage types and are usually bird attracting. 

The inflorescences range from globular heads that may be elongated to toothbrush-like one sided raceme.
The individual flowers consist of a perianth tube that is made up of four segments that are fused except for one side. There are four stamens that are arranged at the tip of the perianth tube and a long hooked style.

Pollination mechanism
Ripe pollen is shed onto the unripe stigma where visitors pick it up. When the pollen is removed or it dries up the stigma becomes ripe and sticky ready for another visitor to deposit pollen, which will grow and induce fertilisation.

The fruit is a capsule (follicle) and is normally leathery splitting to release one or two winged seeds.

Propagation
Although the seeds are viable seedling stock can vary from the parent plant. Grevilleas are normally grown from semi-hardwood cuttings that produce sensitive roots. Care should be taken when potting up or planting out. 
Plants derived from cuttings are busher than seedling stock.

Soils
Grevilleas will tolerate most soil types though they tend to prefer slightly acidic sandy or clay soil types that are well drained.

Aspect
Grevilleas will grow in full sun to shade positions though flower production will diminish in shade. They can tolerate dry periods and some tolerate frost, most of the genus is hardy and tolerate neglect.
