Noteworthy Characteristics

Uses
With a height of 4.5 feet and spread of 4.5 feet, Autumn Sangria is useful in foundation plantings, in small or large groupings in landscape beds, as an informal colorful hedge, or singularly in containers.
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.
Plants arrived in excellent condition, well packaged. The only slight downside was that none of the plants had blooms. Ah well, can't have everything. With shipping charges, more expensive than local nurseries.
Thank you for such a great service! I purchased a one gallon and it arrived in a very good amount of time and was healthy. Here's hoping it can stand the winter. Thank you ToGoGarden.com!
