Covent Garden Baby's Breath
Growing Covent Garden Baby's Breath
‘Covent Garden’ is a classic heirloom baby’s breath prized for its delicate white blooms, airy growth, and excellent cut-flower performance. Multi-branched plants produce an abundance of tiny pure white flowers on long stems, creating the soft, cloud-like appearance traditionally used to complement larger flowers in arrangements.
Plant ‘Covent Garden’ seeds about ¼ inch deep and space plants about 12 inches apart. Germination typically takes 7 to 14 days. This variety is well suited to containers and smaller gardens.
Ready to bloom in about 70 days, enjoy the flowers as they open and reach their best display stage. Cut stems at their peak for fresh bouquets and mixed arrangements.
Delicate, graceful, and versatile, ‘Covent Garden’ is an excellent choice for ornamental beds, cut flower gardens, bouquets, and cottage-style plantings.
