Description

BABY'S BREATH. This is the tiny white flowers used by florist as a filler in bouquets. It's very easy to grow from seed. Not picky about soils, the more clay the better. The name Gypsophila refers to its fondness for clay soils. This plant is pretty much a carefree annual. Baby's Breath grows very fast and will start blooming in about 4 weeks and will continue to flower for 6 more weeks. Keep seedlings watered the first few weeks to help them along. If you don't cut off all the flowers, but leave a few on, it will reseed itself readily. Can be grown in containers or the garden, anywhere with 6 hrs of sun. It will tolerate some drought but does better with light water if no rain. Butterflies and Bees are attracted to this plant.500+Quality seeds. Thank You! Gypsophila elegans. Annual. Full sun.
