Baby's breath (Gypsophila paniculata) is a symbol of romance, purity, and elegance. Its tiny blooms evoke innocence, which is why we so often see it at weddings.
Thanks to its versatility, it's long since stopped being just a "filler" for roses. Today, it's a star in its own right. Giant bouquets full of tiny white or colorful blooms are an absolute trend — they look like a fluffy little cloud.
Tip From Florist Bára (Boho Style):
"Gypsophila is the queen of 'boho' style. My tip? Don't buy it just as an accent. Have a large standalone bouquet made entirely of baby's breath tied for you. It looks modern, minimalist, and luxurious. And once you're tired of it in the vase, just pour out the water. The flower will dry out, but it keeps its shape and color for months."

Water: It needs very little. Change the water once every 3 days and trim the stems.
