A clump-forming perennial daffodil distinguished by its slightly glaucous, strap-shaped leaves. From mid-spring, this impressive daffodil showcases solitary flowers, each boasting delightful widely overlapping petals and a bell crown, creating an enchanting display in a variety of garden settings. With flowers reaching up to 10cm (4in) across, 'Golden Aura' features bright yellow outer petals that encircle a large, golden yellow cup with a ruffled rim, exuding a delicate and lightly light perfume.
Wearing gloves, plant bulbs 10-15cm (4-6in) deep from late summer to early autumn. After flowering feed with a balanced fertiliser, deadhead and allow the leaves to die back naturally.
