species: Grevillea genus
common name: honey grevillea
family: Proteaceae
where & when encountered: Australia - 2017
We were told at Uluru National Park that the aborigines ate these inflorescences for their sweetness. To me they seem like both fruits and flowers. I had seen many grevillea trees but never a shrub. It turns out that hybrids of these shrubs are now used for gardening and landscaping.
