Characteristics and Uses of Bonsai Gypsophila Sky Star Plants

The Bonsai Gypsophila Sky Star is a dwarf variety of Gypsophila, cultivated to thrive as a miniature plant with a bonsai-like form, reaching heights of just 6-12 inches. Its tiny, star-shaped flowers bloom in soft white and pale pink hues, creating a cloud-like effect atop fine, wiry stems and lush, green foliage from late spring through summer.
