Read about Gypsophila paniculata in the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture 

Gypsophila paniculata, Linn. Baby's Breath. Fig. 1774. Diffuse and rather tall-growing (2-3 ft.), forking: lvs. linear-lanceolate, the largest 3 in. long, but becoming smaller toward the infl., sharp-pointed: fls. white, very numerous; pedicels 2-3 times as long as the calyx. Eu. Gn. 68, p. 162.—A very popular plant, especially for use in the trimming of bouquets. A most graceful subject. Sts. stiff and wiry, therefore excellent for cutting. A picture of its use in floral arrangement will be found in A.F. 6:340. Var. fldre-pleno, Hort., with double fls. has been advertised, out is little known in Amer. Gn. 60, p. 103. A.F. 19:767. In places where the double form is difficult of cult., it is recommended that it be grafted on roots of G. paniculata.
