Abstract

A new and distinct cultivar of Euonymus plant named ‘Goldbolwi’, characterized by its compact and upright plant habit; freely basally branching growth habit; and distinct yellow and green variegated leaves.

Description

Botanical designation: Euonymus japonicus.
Cultivar denomination: ‘Goldbolwi’.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present Invention relates to a new and distinct cultivar of Euonymus plant, botanically known as Euonymus japonicus, and hereinafter referred to by the name ‘Goldbolwi’.
The new Euonymus is a naturally-occurring branch mutation of the Euonymus japonicus cultivar China Gold, not patented. The new Euonymus was discovered and selected by the Inventor in a controlled environment in Putten, The Netherlands in 1996. The new Euonymus was selected on the basis of its unique leaf coloration.
Asexual reproduction of the new cultivar by cuttings since January, 1998 in Putten, The Netherlands, has shown that the unique features of this new Euonymus are stable and reproduced true to type in successive generations.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Plants of the cultivar Goldbolwi have not been observed under all possible environmental conditions. The phenotype may vary somewhat with variations in environment such as temperature and light intensity without, however, any variance in genotype.
The following traits have been repeatedly observed and are determined to be the unique characteristics of ‘Goldbolwi’. These characteristics in combination distinguish ‘Goldbolwi’ as a new and distinct Euonymus cultivar:
    • 1. Compact and upright plant habit.
    • 2. Freely basally branching growth habit.
    • 3. Distinct yellow and green variegated leaves.
Plants of the new Euonymus are most similar to plants of the parent, the cultivar China Gold. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Putten, The Netherlands, plants of the new Euonymus differed from plants of the cultivar China Gold in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Euonymus grew slower than plants of the cultivar China Gold.
    • 2. Leaves of plants of the new Euonymus had larger areas of yellow-coloration than leaves of plants of the cultivar China Gold.
Plants of the new Euonymus can be compared to plants of the Euonymus cultivar Golden Maiden, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Putten, The Netherlands, plants of the new Euonymus differed from plants of the cultivar Golden Maiden in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Euonymus were larger than plants of the cultivar Golden Maiden.
    • 2. Plants of the new Euonymus had shorter internodes than plants of the cultivar Golden Maiden.
    • 3. Leaves of plants of the new Euonymus had larger areas of yellow-coloration than leaves of plants of the cultivar Golden Maiden.
Plants of the new Euonymus can also be compared to plants of the Euonymus cultivar Luna, not patented. In side-by-side comparisons conducted in Putten, The Netherlands, plants of the new Euonymus differed from plants of the cultivar Luna in the following characteristics:
    • 1. Plants of the new Euonymus grew slower than plants of the cultivar Luna.
    • 2. Plants of the new Euonymus had shorter internodes than plants of the cultivar Luna.
    • 3. Leaves of plants of the new Euonymus had larger areas of yellow-coloration than leaves of plants of the cultivar Luna.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE PHOTOGRAPH
The accompanying colored photograph illustrates the overall appearance of the new cultivar, showing the colors as true as it is reasonably possible to obtain in colored reproductions of this type. Colors in the photograph may differ slightly from the color values cited in the detailed botanical description which accurately describe the actual colors of the new Euonymus. The photograph comprises a side perspective view of a typical flowering plant of ‘Goldbolwi’ grown in a container.
DETAILED BOTANICAL DESCRIPTION
Plants shown in the aforementioned photograph and used in the following description were grown in containers under conditions which closely approximate commercial production conditions in a glass-covered greenhouse in Putten, The Netherlands. Plants in the photograph and those used for the description were about 1.5 years old when the photographs and description were taken. During the production of the plants, day temperatures ranged from 0 to 32° C. and night temperatures ranged from 0 to 18° C. In the following description, color references are made to The Royal Horticultural Society Colour Chart, 1995 Edition, except where general terms of ordinary dictionary significance are used.
