Book  (1947)  Page(s) 114.  
 
Ethel Somerset (Show)  Listed as an exhibition rose in Adelaide and drier to cool climates, but in Sydney it is only a mediocre growth, and the blooms usually burn to rags when they are out for a day. The clear, lovely silvery pink and good form are attractions, and foliage and growth is healthy. Fragrant. Habit 3. (HT)
