Countess of Aberdeen

Countess of Aberdeen - Cocker 1888 GB B S white white

This cultivar is another one in the category "cute & dainty". Countess of Aberdeen was raised as early as 1888 and is still one of the most beautiful single, near white, small flowered cultivars.
She is said to be temperamental and she is rather kinky to grow. She prefers to be grown 'on the dry side', i.e. she loathes overwatering. And as a near white she shows the best colour in shade.
