Grevillea pinaster is a shrub in the family Proteaceae. It is endemic to south-western Western Australia.[2]
It grows to between 0.5 and 3 metres in height and has a peak flowering period between May and September (late autumn to early spring) in its native range.[3] The flowers are pink to red with yellowish- tipped styles .[2] The long and narrow leaves are 20 to 55 mm long and 1 to 2 mm wide.[3]
The species was first formally described by Carl Meissner in Hooker's Journal of Botany and Kew Garden Miscellany in 1855, from material collected by James Drummond.[1][2]
The species occurs in a small area from north of Eneabba to Bindi Bindi.[4]
Plants labelled as Grevillea stenomera in plant nurseries are often forms or hybrids of this species.[4]
