Gypsophila repens 'Rosea' is a low-growing, mat-forming perennial cultivar native to the mountains of Europe. It belongs to the Gypsophila genus, commonly called Baby's Breath, known for their delicate, airy flowers. 'Rosea' features a sprawling, trailing habit, with slender, branching stems that spread outward to form a dense groundcover. The foliage is comprised of small, linear, gray-green leaves that provide a subtle backdrop for the plant's main attraction - the clusters of small, five-petaled, pink flowers. From late spring through summer, 'Rosea' produces an abundance of these soft pink blossoms, which appear to float above the foliage on thin, wiry stems. With its delicate, pastel-colored blooms, trailing habit, and ability to tolerate poor soil and hot, dry conditions, Creeping Baby's Breath 'Rosea' is a versatile and visually striking groundcover or accent plant for sunny, xeriscape-style gardens. Its airy, ethereal flowers pair beautifully with other low-growing perennials and succulents.
