Grevillea R. Br. Proteaceae (n). 170 Austr. Trees and shrubs with 

 racemose infls., 2 fls. in each axil. The style projects from the bud 

 as a long loop, the stigma being held by the P until the pollen is shed 

 upon it. Then the style straightens out, and the pollen may be 

 removed ; presently the female stage supervenes. Some yield 

 useful timber, and G. robnsta A. Cunn. (silky oak) and other sp. 

 are now extensively employed as shade and timber trees in Ceylon 

 and elsewhere.
