i was told by seller that they just propergate them from growing tips you pinch out but was wondering seeing as this is a drought tolerant plant weather i should seal the cuttings up with a plastic bag or leave uncovered ?
can babys breath be grown in pots?

Just to inform you all... Baby's breath is a serious invasive plant species in Northwest Michigan. The Nature Conservancy is hard at work trying to remove this plant from the coastal sand dunes on Lake Michigan as it is outcompeting native plants (i.e. the Endangered Pitcher's Thistle). PLEASE read more about this before you decide to plant it.
