Description
Grevillea quercifolia is a straggly to sprawling shrub that typically grows to up to 0.6 m (2 ft 0 in) high and 1–3 m (3 ft 3 in – 9 ft 10 in) wide. Its leaves are usually pinnatifid to more or less serrated, glabrous, oblong to narrowly egg-shaped, mostly 35–200 mm (1.4–7.9 in) long and 25–60 mm (0.98–2.36 in) wide, with about 5 to 15 triangular to oblong lobes 5–15 mm (0.20–0.59 in) long and 2–10 mm (0.079–0.394 in) wide. The flowers are usually arranged on the ends of branches in oval to cylindrical clusters on a rachis 15–50 mm (0.59–1.97 in) long, and are pale to deep pink, the pistil 9–11.5 mm (0.35–0.45 in) long. The fruit is an oval to elliptic follicle 18–20 mm (0.71–0.79 in) long.
