Grevillea shuttleworthiana is a more or less erect shrub that typically grows to a height of 0.5 to 3 metres (1.6 to 9.8 ft) and has silky-hairy to glabrous branchlets. Its leaves are egg-shaped to elliptic, heart-shaped, spatula-shaped or more or less round, depending on subspecies, 5–50 mm (0.20–1.97 in) long and 5–30 mm (0.20–1.18 in) wide. The two surfaces are similar to each other, except that the veins are usually prominent on the lower surface, sometimes glaucous, sometimes slightly hairy. The flowers are arranged in cylindrical clusters mostly 30–45 mm (1.2–1.8 in) long, often held high above the foliage. The flowers are pale yellow, those at the base of the clusters flowering first, the pistil 4.5–6.5 mm (0.18–0.26 in) long. Flowering occurs from July to December, and the fruit is an oval to pyramid-shaped, smooth to rough follicle 7–17 mm (0.28–0.67 in) long. This grevillea is similar to Grevillea integrifolia but has ridged branchlets.
