A native of the arid regions of all mainland States where it prefers light, sandy soils in a sunny, open position. It tolerates both drought and frost.

This Grevillea is seen to grow on the tops of sandhills. The name rattle pod comes from Aboriginal use of the branches with dried fruit attached for ceremonial occasions.
While this plant is widespread over the interior, seed is not often offered for sale and when it is, it is expensive for a Grevillea.
