Gypsophila
''Gypsophila'' 〔''Sunset Western Garden Book,'' 1995:606–607〕〔( ''Gypsophila'' ) at (USDA PLANTS Database )〕 is a genus of flowering plants in the carnation family, Caryophyllaceae. They are native to Eurasia, Africa, Australia, and the Pacific Islands.〔(''Gypsophila''. ) Flora of North America.〕 Turkey has a particularly high diversity of ''Gypsophila'' taxa, with about 35 endemic species.〔Korkmaz, M., et al. (2012). (Habitat properties of some ''Gypsophila'' L. (Caryophyllaceae) taxa of Turkey. ) ''Biyoloji Bilimleri Araştırma Dergisi (BİBAD)'' 5(2), 111-25.〕 Some ''Gypsophila'' are introduced species in other regions.〔
The genus name is from the Greek ''gypsos'' ("gypsum") and ''philios'' ("loving"), a reference to the gypsum-rich substrates on which some species grow.〔 Plants of the genus are known commonly as baby's-breath,〔〔(''Gypsophila''. ) Integrated Taxonomic Information System (ITIS).〕 a name which also refers specifically to the well known ornamental species ''Gypsophila paniculata''.
==Description==
''Gypsophila'' are annual and perennial herbs often growing from a thick taproot or a branching caudex, sometimes with rhizomes. The stems are usually erect and branching or sprawling, or in a few species prostrate along the ground. The leaves are variable in shape. The inflorescence is usually a cyme or a thyrse, branching intricately. Each small flower has a cup-like calyx of white-edged green sepals containing five petals in shades of white or pink. The fruit is a rounded or oval capsule opening at valves. It contains several brown or black seeds which are often shaped like a kidney or a snail shell.〔
