GYPSOPHILA HANGING BASKET

Care Tips:

Water: Water when the surface of the compost begins to dry, keeping the basket evenly moist without making it soggy. Hanging baskets can dry out quickly during warm weather, so check regularly.

Sunlight: Place in full sun to partial shade, with several hours of direct sunlight each day for the best flowering.

Feeding: Feed with a balanced liquid fertiliser every 1–2 weeks during the main growing and flowering period to support healthy growth and continued blooms.

Maintenance: Remove faded flowers regularly to encourage further flowering and keep the basket looking fresh. Trim back lightly if the plant becomes untidy or overly leggy.

Position: Hang securely in a sheltered position where the basket receives good light and air circulation. Avoid areas exposed to strong, drying winds.

Frost: Protect from frost and prolonged cold temperatures, particularly while young. Move containers to a sheltered position or protect during cold spells.

Description

Bring a delicate, airy display to your garden with a Gypsophila Hanging Basket. Also known as Baby’s Breath, Gypsophila produces masses of tiny, delicate flowers that create a soft, cloud-like effect. Its naturally spreading and trailing habit makes it particularly well suited to hanging baskets, balconies, patios, and containers, where the flowers can spill attractively over the sides.
