A gardener near Corunna, on the New South Wales south coast, reports that Grevillea buxifolia, the grey spider flower, is flowering in their garden. They describe it as an attractive sandstone-country species and note it is uncommon in cultivation in their area, suggesting it may be easier to find at nurseries closer to Sydney or among Victorian native plant growers. Native plant enthusiasts are sharing observations of this shrub's distinctive grey-pink spider-like blooms.

Why now: Interest in Australian native gardening and the plant's rarity in cultivation makes its successful flowering noteworthy.
