"Protea aurea" (long-bud sugarbush) is a shrub or small tree with a single trunk occurring in mountain fynbos, usually on cool, moist, southern slopes. Flowerheads are solitary and resemble a shuttlecock when open. Fruit is a densley hairy nut. Two subspecies are recognised: subsp. "aurea" and subsp. "potbergensis" with the later being rare and restricted to the Potberg.
