Grevillea robusta seedling

Description

Grevillea robusta, or the silky oak, is a fast-growing, medium to large tree native to Australia, reaching heights of 12-40 meters with a conical crown and fern-like foliage. It features dark, fissured bark and produces distinctive golden-orange flowers in spring. Known for its adaptability, it is widely planted for ornamental value, as a shade tree, and for its useful timber, though it can also become invasive in some regions.
