This
cultivar of unidentified parentage was registered by
Ken Anderson of Minnesota in 1982. The vase shaped mound grows
into a giant size hosta about 33 inches in height
and 6 feet wide with slightly wavy leaf margins. It bears near
white flowers in late June.
According to
The Hostapedia by
Mark Zilis (2009), "The vase-shaped mound habit and
bright gold leaf color make 'Golden Sculpture' an ideal specimen
or centerpiece plant in the shaded garden."
The New Encyclopedia of Hostas by
Diana
Grenfell (2009) states: "H. 'Elegans'
hybrid...Winner of the 1991 Alex J. Summers Distinguished Merit
Hosta Award...Midrib and veins remain green."
An article by Warren I. Pollock in
The
Hosta Journal (2014 Vol. 45 No. 2) states that, "H. 'Golden Sculpture', registered by the late
Ken Anderson in 1982, is one of the
best, large yellow leaved hostas. It makes a majestic specimen."
