Growing Duration: Illusion Paniculata is a perennial that flowers in its second year after sowing, producing flowers from late spring through summer. Under optimal conditions, it can behave as a long-lived plant, re-blooming year after year.
Special Features: Gypsophila Paniculata is known for its branching inflorescences that produce a profusion of tiny white or pink flowers. This plant is an essential component in floral arrangements, especially wedding bouquets and other elegant compositions. In addition to its ornamental value, Gypsophila is easy to care for and can withstand poor soil conditions.
Lighting: Prefers full sun for optimal growth and abundant flowering. Make sure plants receive at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day.
Watering: Illusion Paniculata is fairly drought tolerant once established, but prefers regular watering during dry periods to maintain continued flowering. Keep the soil well-drained and avoid overwatering, as the plant is susceptible to root rot.
Pests: Gypsophila is generally resistant to pests, although it can occasionally be affected by aphids. The use of environmentally friendly products, such as potassium soap and Neem oil, is recommended to keep pests under control.
Cold Hardiness: Illusion Paniculata is cold hardy and can withstand light frosts, making it an excellent choice for temperate climates.
Substrate: A well-drained, slightly alkaline substrate is recommended. Gypsophila prefers light, sandy soils and adapts well to nutrient-poor soils, making it easy to grow in a variety of conditions.
Harvest: Illusion Paniculata flowers are ideal for cutting and using in floral arrangements fresh or dried. For dried flowers, cut the inflorescences when they are in full bloom and hang them upside down in a dark, well-ventilated place.
