Culture & Care
Encore Azaleas prefer a an acid soil that contains plenty of organic matter and is well-drained. Encores will tolerate all-day full sun however will also tolerate some shade. Too much shade and flowering will be diminished. 5 hours or more of direct sun per day is recommended. A light pruning and feeding after the first bloom phase can help stimulate new growth and encourage heavier bud development.
I purchased this Azalea to replace another one that didn't survive (given to me as a gift). It arrived quickly and in great shape. It is still doing well. To Go Garden did a great job with my order.
