Paul Aden
registered this hybrid of two seedlings in 1976. It forms a
large (23 inches high) mound of intensely corrugated, slightly
wavy, bright gold
foliage. The flowers are pale lavender and appear in late June
to July. This cultivar has a slow growth rate.
The Hosta Handbook by
Mark Zilis (2000) comments that, "In the areas of intense corrugation,
bright gold color, and good substance, 'Golden Waffles' ranks
highly. The gold color especially stands out on cloudy days or
at disk."
