Annual Baby’s Breath ‘Covent Garden’
Gypsophila elegans – 100 seeds per packet
I can’t get enough of this airy little filler—it’s like adding a sprinkle of magic to every bouquet. With its dainty white flowers perched on fine, floss-like stems, this beauty adds an ethereal touch to arrangements. It’s a dream to grow, even for beginners, and works beautifully both fresh and dried. Plus, it’s a quick bloomer, rewarding you with clouds of delicate blossoms just two months after planting.
Planting Tips
These plants love to stay put, so sow the seeds directly into the garden after your last frost date. They’ll sprout in about two weeks. For a steady supply, plant every few weeks throughout the season. Be sure to provide support because their slender stems can topple under heavy spring rains.
