The striking Autumn Embers™ Encore® Azalea flowering shrub will set your landscape apart like no other with its fiery deep orange-red blooms. Its thick bloom coverage continues to produce through three full seasons, adding a stunningly dramatic effect almost all year long!

The small evergreen Azalea Embers can be planted alone to add color, or in a hedge row for a beautifully dramatic effect. It is also an excellent selection as a widely spreading, flowering groundcover.

FAQs for Autumn Embers® Encore® Azalea Shrub

In the fall it is best to prune your azaleas in order to prep them for the following blooming season.

The best encore azalea is the Autumn Embers Encore Azalea.

When reviving a dying azalea you will want to make sure your plant is getting proper drainage and keep the area moist, but not soggy until it bounces back. You will also need to add fertilizer to help give your plant a boost.

Encore Azaleas are evergreen so they will keep their dark green foliage throughout the winter months.
