Gypsophila elegans is a popular annual grown in cutting gardens. It is commonly called Babys Breath, and this Rosea variety has light pink single blooms and lance-like leaves on tall whispy stems. It is often used in floral arrangements as a filler that complements larger, more showy flowers. Babys Breath is easy and fast to grow from seed. It is short-lived so many gardeners continue to sow the seed outdoors in a prepared seedbed in 3 4 week intervals to have a continuous supply for cutting.
