Grevillea leptobotrysis naturally found in south-western Western Australia growing on the eastern side of the Darling Ranges in woodlands or forests in well drained moderately fertile gravelly, sandy to clay loams. It prefers an open sunny position and is frost and drought tolerant.

The Tangled Grevillea is grown for its flowers and habit although not commonly cultivated. It is planted in arid gardens as a spillover plant or grown in botanical collections. It is suitable for inland regions and exposed positions on ridges and establishes in 1 to 2 years but short lived.

This plant is difficult to cultivate requiring perfect drainage, best achieved by planting on 500 mm (20 in) of coarse gravel and avoid over watering.ID 3166
