Hi, we are planning on growing more flowers for cutting next season and we were wondering what the small white flowers with delicate feathery foliage are called? They seem to be used as a background in displays. If you know what we mean, please enlighten us!

Thanks

Hi.  Do you mean gypsophila (I think that's how you spell it)

[SpudtheBinx]

Yep thats the one, according to google image search anyway! Many thanks for that

The best gypsophilia to get is the perennial bush one.  There is also an annual, but my Dad used to grow flowers on his allotment to sell to neighbours, and he had 2 HUGE gyp plants that were in our garden for many years, and he just used to go down there and pick bunches of the stuff whenever he wanted to in the flowering season.  They looked lovely!!!!
