Description

Gypsophila paniculata 'Snowflake' is a classic open-pollinated heirloom perennial selection revered for its cloud-like masses of tiny, pure white double blossoms. Growing into airy, billowy mounds reaching 30 to 36 inches in height and width, it produces thousands of delicate 0.25-inch fully double flowers on fine, intricately branched, wire-like stems. Blooming prolifically from early to late summer, Snowflake provides a soft, ethereal texture that lightens up sunny garden borders and weaves effortlessly among bolder perennials. Universally recognized as the quintessential filler flower, it is an indispensable staple for fresh cut arrangements, bridal bouquets, and everlasting dried floral designs.
