Default ID of exotic flower please

Does anyone recognise this? It's a shrub, I feel pretty sure and has woody
stems and leaves rather like a Callistemon. But the curly bits on the
flower remind me of Grevillea, though the flower head is probably between 4
and 6" long and is conical. The leaves are a greyish green, narrow and
about 2" long.
