H. kikutii
'Aureomarginata'
 

According to The Hostapedia by Mark Zilis (2009), "H. kikutii 'Aureomarginata' = H. kikutii 'Kifukurin Hyuga'."

Mikiko Lockwood in an article on The Hosta Library titled, A Little About Japanese Hosta Terms defines the term kifukurin or ki fukurin as yellow edge(d) or yellow margin(ed).
 


 
 

Looks like the specimen shown above has lost its marginal variegation and has reverted to the all-green form.
