Diplacus grandiflorus, the large-flowered bush-monkeyflower,[1] is a species of flowering plant. It is a subshrub or shrub endemic to the northern Sierra Nevada of California. It grows on steep canyon banks and rocky hillsides from 90 to 1530 (1830) meters elevation.[3]

The taxon was first described as Diplacus glutinosus var. grandiflorus by John Lindley and Joseph Paxton in 1852. In 1854 François Hérincq elevated it to a full species as D. grandiflorus. D. grandiflorus Greene is a later homonym which is now considered a synonym of D. aurantiacus.[4]
