Considered the gold hosta all other golden hostas are judged by. This vigorous performer exhibits medium sized leaves of golden yellow with green leaf margins. The golden interiors of the leaves are develop with age, while the leaf margins take on a deeper color. The ovate leaves are corrugated, which enables a stronger upright leaf structure. In mid-summer the foliage display gives way to a long show of white trumpet shaped flowers. A star in the garden that gives light to shady areas.
