Grevillea secunda is a shrub of the genus Grevillea native to an area in the Goldfields-Esperance region of Western Australia. [1]
The shrub typically grows to a height of 0.3 to 0.5 metres (1.0 to 1.6 ft) and has non-glaucous branchlets. It has simple dissected leaves with a blade that is 40 to 90 millimetres (1.57 to 3.54 in). It blooms in July and produces a terminal raceme irregular inflorescence with red or pink flowers and red styles. Later it forms simple brown ellipsoidal hairy fruit that is 10 to 13 mm (0.4 to 0.5 in) long. [1]
The species was first formally described by the botanist Donald McGillivray in 1986 as a part of the work New Names in Grevillea (Proteaceae). [2] There is one synonym; Hakea secunda (McGill.) Christenh. & Byng. [3]
The shrub is found in an area to the north east of Kalgoorlie from around the Queen Victoria Spring Nature Reserve in the south up to Plumridge Lake Nature Reserve in the north where it found growing on sand dunes and sand plains as a part of low shrubland communities. [1]
