Originated by
Paul Aden of
Garden of Aden in New York, this non-registered cultivar is of unidentified parentage.
According to
The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "I've never seen 'Golden Ventricosa' in a garden or on a
nursery list...There are, however, a few gold-leaved
sports and seedlings of
Hosta ventricosa including
'Taiwan', 'Peking', 'Holly's Gold', and 'Crystal
Fountain'."
