'''''Grevillea petrophiloides''''' ('''Pink Pokers''') is a [[shrub]] [[grevillea]] native to [[Western Australia]]. It is 1 to 3 metres high, with thin, needle-like leaves and dense, cylindrical [[flower]]s. ''Grevillea petrophiloides'' occurs in sandy and rocky areas. The fruits are sticky follicles, 5 to 7 centimetres long.
The specific name "petrophiloides" comes from the similar appearance of the leaves with the genus [[Petrophile]].
