Hi Richard,
thank you for the links. They helped me to identify a Grevilea Robusta
(about 5M high)over the road from my place. However although very similar
to the type I am talking about, it doesn't have the stratified bands of
flowers across it's foliage. The flowers of the G.Robusta in the pictures
seem quite random in their positioning.
I wonder if the stratafication only happens when they get really big? They
are a really spectacular tree. And apart from attracting birds, the bees
seem to like them too.
Regards,
Ed.

This is getting upto the big stuff in the genus. Most others are shrubs.
Susceptible to sooty mold in WA.
