Baby's Breath

Baby's Breath, scientifically known as Gypsophila paniculata, is a popular ornamental flowering plant belonging to the carnation family, Caryophyllaceae. Native to parts of Europe and Asia, it is widely celebrated for its delicate, cloud-like clusters of tiny white or pink flowers that add an ethereal, airy texture to floral arrangements and garden borders. This hardy herbaceous perennial thrives in well-drained, alkaline soils and full sun exposure, making it remarkably drought-tolerant once established. While it is a cherished favorite among florists globally, it can behave as an invasive species in certain agricultural regions due to its prolific seed production and deep taproot system.
