Baby’s breath guide
What is baby’s breath?
Baby’s breath is the common name for gypsophila, a member of the carnation family. Each stem carries masses of tiny white or soft pink flowers, which is why it’s so often used to fill out bouquets.
On its own or as a filler
Traditionally a filler around roses, baby’s breath now often stars on its own in big, airy bunches. It’s a popular choice for weddings, baby showers and minimalist arrangements.
How to care for baby’s breath
- Trim the stems and put them in fresh water.
- Change the water every couple of days.
- Keep it away from fruit, which speeds up ageing.
Drying baby’s breath
Baby’s breath dries beautifully. When it starts to fade, hang small bunches upside down in a dry, dark spot for a week or two, and it will keep for months.
