ABSTRACT:

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Phlox plant, botanically known as
Phlox paniculata
, and hereinafter referred to by the cultivar name Goldmine.
The new Phlox is a naturally-occuring whole plant mutation of the
Phlox paniculata
cultivar Kirchenfurst. The new Phlox was discovered by the Inventor in a controlled environment in Den Hoorn, The Netherlands, within a population of plants of ‘Kirchenfurst’ in 1998. The selection of this new Phlox was based on its unique variegated foliage. Plants of the cultivar Kirchenfurst have solid green-colored foliage.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by vegetative cuttings taken at Den Hoorn, The Netherlands, has shown that the unique features of this new Phlox are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Plants of the cultivar Goldmine have not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature, light intensity, daylength, and fertilizer rate without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘Goldmine’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Goldmine’ as a new and distinct cultivar:
1. Unique green and light yellow variegated foliage.
2. Upright plant habit.
3. Numerous bright purple flowers.
4. Good garden performance.
