Gypsophila paniculata
FLOWER-GYPSOPHILA COVENT GARDEN-BABY’S BREATH are easy to grow, producing masses of delicate little blooms that smother the plant to create an airy cushion of flowers. A perfect & much sought-after filler for cut flower bouquets and mixed borders. A hardy annual. Sow in Spring. Gypsophila needs little introduction & is perhaps the most useful flower in the supply of a florist, wispy, lacy, delicate, airy & graceful, it adds an ethereal quality to displays & creates a delightful foil for almost any other flower you put alongside it. Height 60 cm.

To sow Gypsophila seeds directly outdoors, wait until temperatures have warmed & prepared the soil, sow the flower seeds & lightly rake the soil over the seeds barely covering them. Keep the seeds constantly moist (not wet) & germination should occur in 10 – 20 days. Repeat sowing the flower seeds every 2 – 3 weeks for successive blooming all growing season.

More About Us

ABSeeds is an Australian owned business trading under the umbrella of Direct Compost Solutions which is owned and managed by Victoria Brun.

We as a company endeavor to provide to the public, Organic, Old Fashioned, Heritage, and Open-pollinated seeds that have not been genetically modified.

We purchased the business in November 2018 and renamed it to ABSeeds (All ‘Bout Seeds) to make the title shorter and represent what we hope to achieve with this business in the years ahead.

Seeds that we can’t grow ourselves we will acquire from people who grow for us, or we may purchase seeds from reputable heritage seed companies.
