Florists mix baby's-breath among the larger flowers in bouquets for a delicate effect.

The most common type of baby's-breath is a perennial (there are over 100 species of Gypsophila), which lives from year to year.

However, a few related plants often called baby's-breath are annuals, and are grown from seeds each year. These plants have rose or pink flowers. Baby's-breath is easy to grow. It is often found in dry, open places.

Baby's-breath belongs to the pink family, Caryophyllaceae.

The scientific name for the perennial baby's-breath is Gypsophila panicula and the more common annual species Gypsophila elegans
