Grevillea centristigma is a shrub which is endemic to the south west region of Western Australia.
It grows to between 0.15 and 0.5 metres in height and produces yellow or orange flowers between April and November (mid autumn to late spring) in its native range.
The species was originally described as a subspecies of Grevillea drummondii by botanist Donald McGillivray, his description published in New Names in Grevillea (Proteaceae) in 1986. In 1992, G.J. Keighery elevated it to species status.
