    Regatta has been very happy in my garden for the past 20 years. It has sturdy canes climbing to about 6 feet in height and blooms of a soft coral-pink with a cream reverse. It is an amazingly undemanding rose. It's growing under a huge black walnut tree, making the most of only a couple of hours of sun each day after the tree leafs out in spring. It's one of my roses with a raspberry scent, my favorite fragrance in roses.
