The Autumn Coral® Encore Azalea is a dense evergreen bush growing 8 inches a year to a mature height of 4 feet, and a width of 5 feet. In April, and again from early July to the first frost, it is covered in beautiful coral pink blooms that are a full 3 inches across. Their rich coloring is enhanced by the fluted petals and the delicate brushstrokes and dots that decorate the inside of every bloom. Grow this spectacular bush around your home, out in beds, beneath trees or in wooded areas. It brings months of color and beauty to your garden.
The Autumn Coral® Encore Azalea is more sun resistant than many other azaleas, and it benefits from a bright spot with at least morning sun. Grow it in moist, well-drained and rich, acidic soil, with a pH of 6.5 or less. If you don’t have suitable soil it can be grown in a large planter in soil for acid-loving plants. Water regularly during dry weather. It is normally free of pests or diseases and it should not be trimmed unless absolutely necessary, as this will reduce the re-blooming.
