User's notes

Plant less than 1m tall. Spreading out more than growing up. Can't decide if this is G. parviflora or G. linearifolia. I would appreciate someone's input on this if possible. Growing alongside Isopogon and Casuariana on sandstone adjoining heathland. Edit: G. patulifolia looks like it could be another option.

Hi Matt, If you can manage some closer close-ups with your camera in future that would be good. With Grevillea you need to be able to see the ovary (hairy or not) to even start keying them out. I can just make out where the floral tube has fallen that the ovary is hairless if I zoom on on one of your shots, but closer would be better! I've plumped for patulifolia because the leaf tip is pungent (long, pointed, hardened, darker) and the Flora of NSW only says that for this species out of the 3 you suggest, and it is a good fit to my only photo of that species, and not to my photos of the other two.
