    Very pretty wildflower, nothing like we have here in the U.S.A.

    Thank you, there is a wide variety in the Grevilleas in their natural form and the cultivated ones are large and showy and equally interesting in shapes. If you pop into the Grevillea group, browse through the variety of pictures there, it will give you some indication of these strange flowers.
