It is Grevillea and very close to G. banksii, but the flower spike may
be too long for that species even though there are several quite
diverse forms. There have been quite a few banksii hybrids over the
years and it's a fairly safe bet that this is one of them.
Thanks, Dave and to others who answered helpfully. Interesting, Kay thought
it was a Banksia, given its actual name.
It might not be named for its superficial similarity to Banksia, it
might simply be honouring the same botanist
