Grevillea johnsonii (Johnson's grevillea) is a shrub species which is endemic to New South Wales in Australia.[2]

It grows to between 2 and 4.5 metres high.[2] The leaves are 10 to 25 cm long and have narrow lobes that are 0.7 to 1.5 mm wide.[3] Flowers appear between August and November (late winter to late spring) in the species' native range.[2] These have red to orange perianths and styles.[3]

Grevillea johnsonii mainly occurs in the Goulburn and Capertee River catchments.[3]

The species was first formally described in 1975 by Donald McGillivray.[1] It is closely related to Grevillea longistyla.[2]
