Perfect Plants Encore Azalea Autumn Embers in 1 Gal. Grower’s Pot | Red Ornamental Flowering Shrub | Compact and Easy to Grow | Blooms Spring Through Fall | Attracts Pollinators | Zones 6-10

The Autumn Embers™ Encore® Azalea delivers fiery, deep orange-red blooms that create bold, eye-catching color from spring through fall. Unlike traditional azaleas that flower once a year, this Encore® variety produces thick bloom coverage across three seasons, adding dramatic beauty to any landscape almost year-round. Its 2.5-inch semi-double flowers contrast beautifully with dark evergreen foliage, and its compact, low-maintenance growth habit makes it easy for gardeners of all experience levels. Growing 2–3 feet wide and up to 3 feet tall, the Autumn Embers™ Azalea works beautifully as a specimen plant, small hedge, or spreading flowering groundcover. This shrub thrives in partial sun with afternoon shade, preferring moist, well-drained, slightly acidic soil. Hardy, reliable, and trouble-free, it grows well in USDA zones 6–10 and performs best when watered consistently during the first year to establish strong roots. The Encore® series is valued for reblooming in spring, summer, and fall, giving you long-lasting color with minimal care. For gardeners seeking vivid red seasonal interest and an easy-care flowering shrub, Autumn Embers™ stands out as a top choice.
