p103 E. M. Grassick. Spring Rose Show, Melbourne, 1929. [Alister Clark’s] own non-competitive contribution of roses from his garden at ‘Glenara’ included several tables of varieties and new seedlings raised at ‘Glenara’. The variety Lady Somers, presented to the National Rose Society, was there. The blooms are a rich pink at the base, shading to pale pink on the reflex edge of the petal. It is a fine garden rose, and holds its colour. The deep and light shading of pink in the colouring, and the fairly full petalage should make this variety popular for cutting and garden decoration.
