Description:
Cross between Golden Aureous, a yellow leaf Spanish type peanut, and Tamrun 96, a runner variety. No F2 plants combined yellow leaves and runner growth habit; selections were made for yellow leaves and the Virginia growth habit. Several F3 and F4 populations were evaluated in 2003 and 2004. Several entries were selected and increased in Brownfield, TX in 2005. Entry Tx046127 was selected to be released as Golden Virginia.
