The Autumn JewelĀ® EncoreĀ® Azalea is a rounded evergreen bush that grows steadily to reach 4 feet tall and wide, with neat leaves giving it a dense form. Flowering begins in late March or April, and then starts again by late July, ending with a big finale in September and October. The large blooms are a full 2 inches across, in clusters, and they are a vibrant magenta-pink with slight purple elements. Use this bush in your shrub beds, among the foundation plants around your home, in open woody places, or in planter boxes and pots.
Give the Autumn JewelĀ® EncoreĀ® Azalea plenty of sun, using mulch to keep the soil cool and warm, while watering regularly. Afternoon shade is recommended in the hottest zones. It is hardy from zone 6 to zone 10 and it thrives in acidic soil that has a maximum pH of 6.5. Enrich the soil with organic material like peat moss or rotted oak leaves, and feed it regularly, especially in pots. Use fertilizers and soil for acid-loving plants when growing in pots. Pests and diseases are rare.
