Product Details

Autumn Ivory Encore Azalea offers vibrant year-round color to any garden. Autumn Ivory is a compact grower that bursts with huge quantities of bright white flowers spring, summer and fall Unlike many traditional azaleas, Encore azaleas bloom best in full sun, so choose an area of your yard where they can receive at least 4-6 hours of sunlight. Its dwarf size makes Autumn Ivory one the best Encore Azalea for containers and foundation plantings. Also makes a great container plant. Be sure to plant your Encore Azaleas in acidic to slightly acidic soil to maximize your bloom yield. Fertilize in the spring with a balanced fertilizer after the threat of the last frost has dissipated and feed once more in the summer to help you Encore bloom through fall. Encore Azalea is the world's best-selling multi-season blooming azalea. In many areas of the country, Encore Azalea bloom during 3 seasons of the year-spring, summer, and fall. And, for areas of the country where azaleas don't traditionally thrive, such as those in USDA hardiness Zone 7, you will see a spring or summer bloom, but not a fall bloom before your temperatures drop.

    Q:Which encore azalea is best suited in zone 5b. Will it bloom more than once?
    by|May 26, 2023
    1 Answer
    Answer This Question

    A:  Encore Azaleas are generally well-suited for zones 6-10, and Zone 5b can be a bit cold for them. Encore Azaleas may not bloom as frequently or as prolifically in colder climates as it would in warmer zones, but it can still produce a second round of blooms under the right conditions, primarily in spring and again in the late summer or early fall. To help maximize its chances of reblooming, ensure proper winter protection and choose a well-drained, sheltered location to mitigate the effects of colder winters.

              Luckily the plant survived. The box was not properly marked and was busted up, as was the plant when I opened the box.
