It has similarities in appearance to ''Grevillea microstegia'', ''Grevillea floripendula'' and ''Grevillea aquifolium'' but has larger floral bracts. The flowers, which appear between October and March in its native range, have greenish to fawn perianths and red styles.〔〔 The species was first formally described in ''Muelleria'' in 1983. There are two recognised subspecies: *subsp. ''montis-cole'' (The Glut Grevillea, ''Grevillea'' Mount Cole or ''Grevillea'' 'Glut' ) occurs in Mount Cole State Forest. It is a shrub that grows to between 1 and 1.5 metres in height and has pistils which are greater than 20mm in length. The subspecies is listed as "Rare in Victoria" on the Victorian Department of Sustainability and Environment's ''Advisory List of Rare Or Threatened Plants In Victoria''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Department of Sustainability and Environment (Victoria) )〕 *subsp.
