🌿 Bridal Veil
Gibasis geniculata
(sometimes sold as Tahitian Bridal Veil)
Airy. Cascading. Effortlessly romantic.
Bridal Veil is a fast-growing trailing plant known for its delicate green foliage and tiny white star-shaped flowers that appear like a soft mist over the leaves. When happy, it spills beautifully over the edge of a planter, creating movement and texture in any space.
It feels light. Layered. Alive.
At House of Ivy, this is one of our favorite plants for shelves, hanging planters, and elevated styling moments.
🪴 Light
Bright, indirect light is best.
It can tolerate medium light, but flowering and fullness improve with brighter exposure. Avoid harsh direct afternoon sun.
💧 Water
Keep soil lightly moist.
Allow the top inch to dry slightly between waterings, but do not let it fully dry out for extended periods.
🌡 Temperature
Prefers 60–80°F.
Protect from cold drafts.
🌱 Soil
Well-draining potting mix.
A standard indoor mix with added perlite works well.
🐾 Pet Friendly
Generally considered non-toxic to cats and dogs.
As always, discourage chewing.
🌿 Plant Parent Match
• Those who love trailing plants
• Shelving stylists and layered interiors
• Anyone wanting soft movement in their space

Bridal Veil is not structured.
It drapes. It softens. It spills.
And when it flowers, it feels like a quiet celebration. 🌿✨
