Usha Di, I have attached all the pictures I had. Unfortunately, don't have any more details to reply about. How I am suppose to take the measurements would be anybody's guess, since it would be a guess only. How am I suppose to study the flowering season of an ornamental I have come across in a sight seeing trip? I really wish I had the answers and could help you further. Thanks for taking such a lot of interest in this Grevillea. For me, I am happy to identify it as a Grevillea Species Cultivar. Good day and regards, Aarti
