Hosta ID

[sweetee]

I was given this hosta when someone got a new house and this was in the yard. No ID. Any guesses? I haven't seen the blooms to know what they look like. Thanks in advance.

It could be Gold Standard or Orange Marmalade.

I'm not really sure. Colours can vary so much with different light conditions. I do want to point out what might be foliar nematode damage along the petiole of the leaf at the left. What do others think?

I was thinking the same on the ID.
Nematodes; I take those pretty seriously. I went out and searched the plant and can't find that marking. I had just repotted it. I am posting the picture from 5 minutes before I carried it out of my slug area.
I did put the hosta in quarantine to watch it. Thanks Ann.

In this later pic, it looks like a young Gold Standard (grown in shade).

Could be. Some leaves are solid gold. When he gave it to me, it was in a 3 gallon container, solid roots from his garden, in "dirt/mud". I transplanted it immediately. He said the new house had this in most of the flower beds. I know he dug up a full plant, didn't divide it. If I put it next to my gold standard, I'm thrown because mine doesn't have any solid gold leaves. Who knows. I'll lean towards gold standard until it does something different. Thanks.
