Grevillea didymobotrya is a shrub in the family Proteaceae. It is endemic to south-western Western Australia.
It grows to between 1 and 3 metres in height and produces flowers between August and December (late winter to early summer) in its native range. The infloresences are cream or yellow terminal racemes. The leaves are 1 to 12 cm long and 1 to 9 mm wide.
The species was first formally described by Carl Meissner in Prodromus Systematis Naturalis Regni Vegetabilis in 1856, from material collected by James Drummond. Two subspecies are currently recognised: subsp. didymobotrya and subsp. involuta.
