It is known to occur from the Eyre Peninsula in South Australia to north of Armidale in NSW, including Tasmania and the Bass Straight Islands. Silver Banksia grows on a range of soils and in different environments ranging from coastal to inland. Although no subspecies are recognised, Silver Banksia varies from a small shrub (1 m) to a very tall tree (12 m). It is an important food source for many birds and animals.
