Gypsophila, or Baby's Breath, is a low growing annual which has a mounding growth habit. For most of the year, petite blooms cover the whole plant. They look spectacular in garden beds, rockeries, and pot/container gardens, creating superb colour and depth. Gypsophila flowers are also well-known for their use in floral arrangements.

These plants prefer well-drained and lighter soils, and have low water requirements once established, though will appreciate watering during dry spells. Good tolerance of cooler temperatures, perfect for Melbourne. Best flowering is achieved through watering during dry spells and deadheading of spent blooms.
