Grevillea yorkrakinensis is a shrub of the genus Grevillea native to an area in the south eastern Wheatbelt and western Goldfields-Esperance regions of Western Australia.[1]

The low dense and spreading shrub typically grows to a height of 0.2 to 0.4 metres (0.7 to 1.3 ft) and has non-glaucous branchlets. It has undissected, flat, linear leaves with a blade that is 5 to 15 millimetres (0.20 to 0.59 in) in length and 0.5 millimetres (0.02 in) wide. It blooms between May and October and produces an axillary raceme irregular inflorescence with orange or red flowers with green or pink styles. Later it forms ribbed or ridged, ovoid, simple hairy fruit that are 7 to 11 mm (0.3 to 0.4 in) long.[1]
