Grevillea wittweri is a shrub of the genus Grevillea native to an area in the southern Wheatbelt region of Western Australia.

The dense multi-branched spreading shrub typically grows to a height of 1 to 2.2 metres (3.3 to 7.2 ft) and has non-glaucous branchlets. It has simple undissected subpinnatisect to bipinnatisect leaves with a blade that is 40 to 80 millimetres (1.57 to 3.15 in) in length. It blooms between September and April and produces a terminal raceme irregular inflorescence with green, pink or brown flowers with red or purple styles. Later it forms oblong or ovoid glandular hairy fruit that are 12 to 14 mm (0.5 to 0.6 in) long.
