Growing Non-GMO Gypsophila Gypsy Deep Rose Flower Seeds

Gypsophila seeds have a wildflower-like hardiness and are most popularly sown outdoors directly after the frost. Gypsy Deep Rose grows so vigorously that there is little reason to begin indoors, but for earliest blooms, begin seeds 4-6 weeks prior and harden off to a sunny place in the garden or planter. Note that some seedlings will fail to live past the transplant stage. Germination will take 7-21 days with full lighting. Lightly press 5-6 Deep Rose gypsophila seeds 14 inches apart into average, medium dry, and well-drained soil in full light. Baby’s Breath is also commonly broadcasted directly like a wildflower and evenly raked and tamped into the soil.

Deep Rose gypsophila is a hardy full sun performer known to be very low-maintenance and tolerant to heat and drought. Do not overwater because gypsophila thrives in dry soils. However, they benefit from light supplemental watering during droughts or dry spells. Cut back spent foliage, leaves, and blooms after flowering to prolong vitality into the fall. No fertilization is needed but can be helpful while the plants are young. After the first round of flowering, completely cut the plant back, and it may rebloom in the same year. This annual plant will not come back the following year but may reseed.

Landscape Use of Gypsophila Gypsy Deep Rose

About Gypsophila Gypsy Deep Rose Garden Seeds

These delicate pink blossoms can also be used as cut flowers for cottagey arrangements. They add vibrant colors and a fluffy texture to any bouquet or centerpiece. To harvest as a cut flower, snip off the bloom as far down the stem as possible, this often groups many blooms together, and then store them in cold water to prolong vitality.

Gypsy Deep Rose debuted as a 2004 All-America Selections Bedding Plant Winner and was noted by AAS judges as "producing a higher number of blooms over a longer flowering season" and "easily grown from seed and requires little maintenance."

Gypsophila plants are generally easy to grow and care for, making them a popular choice for gardeners of all skill levels.

Gypsophila muralis, or more commonly known as Baby’s Breath, is native to central and Eastern Europe but has since naturalized throughout much of the world.

Stories From Our Gardeners

"There has to be some crazy high percentage of brides who got married in the late 2010s who had baby’s breath as part of their wedding. I know I did! They were used in the bonbonnieres for the groomsmen and the mini bouquets for the bridesmaids. They looked great!"
