Encore Azalea Autumn Twist (1 Gallon) Pink Flowering Shrub - Full Sun Live Outdoor Plant

Autumn Sangria Encore Azalea: A Reblooming Evergreen Delight

Autumn Sangria Encore Azalea is a reblooming evergreen shrub that will provide months of beauty instead of just weeks. Once the plant has bloomed, the first thing you'll notice is the stunning white blooms with delightful purple spots. These evergreen shrubs make an excellent foundation plant and thrive when planted in masses. This fast-growing variety can reach a height of 4.5 feet and a width of 4 feet.

The Encore Azalea Autumn Twist can serve as a focal point in your yard or garden, drawing attention to entries with its dense growth habit. During the spring, summer, and fall, the beautiful white and pink blooms will attract a variety of visitors, including butterflies, hummingbirds, and bees.

Minimal Maintenance: Autumn Twist requires little pruning to maintain its shape and does not need to be deadheaded. If you choose to prune your azaleas, be sure to do so immediately after the spring flowering. Once the plant is well-established, light pruning may encourage growth and flowering in future seasons. Avoid pruning in the fall, as this will remove the buds that have begun setting for the next blooming season.

Versatile and Hardy: The Autumn Twist is hardy in USDA Zones 6a-10. These outdoor plants are quite tolerant and prefer full sun, but can also tolerate some shade. Ideal growing conditions will lead to the healthiest blooms, so if possible, plant in full sun. In the early years, water regularly, especially during dry periods. Like all azaleas, these plants thrive in acidic soil with a maximum pH of 6.5, but they prefer a lower pH around 5.5.

Potted for Convenience: This plant ships as a 1-gallon potted plant with soil from the Alabama Gulf Coast. Please note that it is not guaranteed to be in bloom upon arrival. Unfortunately, this plant is unavailable for shipping to Hawaii and Alaska.
