Hosta fortunei var. aureomarginata (v) is a fast growing Hosta that has dark green leaves with a yellow marginal variegation. Pale lavender flowers which are funnel shaped are borne in clusters on scapes. It has been considered a great Hosta for many decades and has been sold as 'Gold Crown', 'Golden Crown' and 'Yellow Edge'.
Until Schmid (1991) changed the status of this plant from a species to a cultivar, it had been known as Hosta fortunei 'Aureo-marginata'. It had been registered under that name in 1987 by The American Hosta Society.
