Baby’s Breath (Gypsophila) produces beautiful billowy mists of tiny white flowers from July through August. Excellent as a fresh cut flower or as a background in dried bouquets. Stately plants grow to 90 cm tall, prefer neutral to somewhat alkaline soils. Plants will benefit from an application of gypsum to the soil every spring – this helps to maintain a plant favourable soil pH. Hardy to Zone 3. Please note seed is not sold to addresses in British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan.
How to Grow
Long lived bushy plants are invaluable for the perennial garden. We suggest it is best to start seed outdoors from May through mid-July in a slightly shaded location for bloom the following year. Space seedlings 60 cm apart in the garden. Germination occurs in 10-20 days.
