Gypsophila MY PINK™ (paniculata 'DANGYP39' PP17485)

Common Name: Baby's Breath

Looking for a “pink” baby’s breath that’s actually pink?  The new MY PINK® Gypsophila is the best we’ve seen so far.  In our trials, we were very impressed with its large panicles of true light pink flowers which appeared from early through midsummer. 

This is an upright well-branched bush-type that grows up to 3’ tall, so this large perennial is an effective covering for holes left by spring bulbs. 

MY PINK® is the product of a planned breeding program conducted by the inventor, Danziger (“Dan” Flower Farm) who also brought us the fabulous Gypsophila FESTIVAL STAR™.  The objective of the breeder was to develop a variety with large, double, pink flowers that made good cut flowers with a long vase life. 

MY PINK® is suitable for both cut flower production and home gardens.

Baby's Breath has long been valued as a filler plant in perennial border gardens and also as a long-lasting cut flower. Its broad habit makes this plant the perfect cover up for dying bulb foliage or for perennials, such as poppies or bleeding hearts, that go dormant in summer. Baby's Breath also makes an excellent dried flower.
