The Encore Azalea Autumn Sunset is a vibrant reblooming azalea that lights up your garden with its fiery orange-red, single-form blooms. Flowering in spring, summer, and fall, this stunning shrub adds warmth and continuous color to your landscape throughout the growing season. Its compact, evergreen foliage stays lush and green year-round, providing a striking contrast to its bold blossoms. Perfect for borders, foundation plantings, low hedges, or container gardens, the Autumn Sunset is as versatile as it is beautiful. With excellent cold hardiness and minimal maintenance needs, this azalea is a brilliant choice for gardeners in USDA Zones 6–10. Encore Azaleas bloom best when given four to six hours of direct sunlight daily. When planting this Azalea dig the hole twice as wide as the pot and mix slightly acidic garden soil in with your native soil, then leave the top of the root ball half an inch above the ground level when filling the hole with soil.
