Autumn Embers Encore Azalea Shrub

This azalea will provide fiery red blooms that cover almost the entire bush for three seasons out of the year. This red bush is a re-blooming evergreen with oval green leaves. Use it as a specimen or to create a hedge row. Plant in partial sun and well-draining acidic soil. The mature size will be 3 feet tall and equally as wide. Hardy in zones 6-10.

Nandinas

These red bushes for landscaping are well known for their easy-care and four-season beauty. A native of Japan and China, nandinas are thought to bring good luck. That might be true but they definitely will bring beauty to the landscape.

Some nandina shrubs are open and airy but the Nandina Compacta cultivars are more dense and branchy, with thicker foliage and shorter stature. The Compacta cultivars make ideal hedges or foundation plantings.

Nandinas produce clusters of white flowers in the spring. If those flowers are pollinated, sprays of red berries will develop in the late fall and remain on the bush throughout the winter. The green leaves of the Nandina will change to a brilliant reddish bronze in the fall.

Nandinas are hardy in USDA growing zones 6-11. Plant in full to partial sun. This red bush will reach a mature size of 3-4 feet tall and 4-5 feet wide. Feed once in the spring. Prune in early spring if needed.

Spirea

Some varieties of Spirea have vibrant red leaves that will develop different reddish hues throughout the year. Clusters of tiny pink flowers appear in the spring that will attract pollinators.
