Ixia aurea is a perennial flowering plant and geophyte belonging to the genus Ixia and is part of the fynbos.[1] The species is endemic to the Western Cape and occurs from Piketberg to Citrusdal and Darling. Although the plant has a range of 2 426 km², only three fragmented subpopulations remain. Crop cultivation is the single largest cause of habitat loss.[2]
There is a possibility that the species has been overlooked because it closely resembles the Ixia maculata and Ixia dubia species.
