Special Attributes

In 1998, the release of the first reblooming Encore Azalea changed the Azalea world forever. Since then, over 30 Encore varieties have been released. When provided enough sunlight (6 or more hours per day) all varieties bloom in spring and then repeat summer into fall.

The newest introduction to the family of Encore Azaleas, ‘Autumn Majesty’ features an abundance of vibrant purple semi-double flowers with ruffled petals that blooms in spring, summer, and fall! Attractive green foliage on mounding plant to 3 feet tall and 3.5 feet wide remains bright green throughout winter. Butterflies love the flowers, and blooming branches serve very well for cutting to create stunning indoor floral arrangements.

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing in a rounded mound to 3 feet tall and 3.5 feet wide, Autumn Majesty Encore Azalea is ideal for is in groupings, mass plantings, low hedges or an accent in landscape borders and home foundation plantings. It is also a fine selection for growing in containers and pots, which can be strategically placed to dress up decks, patios, porches, and other outdoor living spaces. Because they like sun to part shade, Encores do quite well under tall trees and along woodland borders. A fine addition to azalea and rhododendron gardens, sunny woodland borders, purple theme gardens and cottage gardens.

Suggested Spacing: 3 feet apart for solid hedges; 6 feet or more apart for space between plants

Cultural Preferences

We’ve been growing Encore Azaleas in our gardens since they were first released in the 1990’s and can say with confidence that when planted right, and in the right spot, Encore Azaleas are among the easiest azaleas easy to grow.

Soil: When planted in the ground, Encore Azaleas adapt well to most soil types. In general, like all other azaleas, the Encores prefer an organically rich, moist but well-drained acidic soil. Constantly soggy or wet soil is problematic for azaleas. Heavy clay, quick-draining sand, or otherwise poor soils are best amended with organic matter or other soil amendments to provide sufficient nutrients, better soil drainage, and/or moisture retention.

In containers, a 50/50 blend of professional potting mix and potting soil is suggested. Make sure the pot has a hole(s) in the bottom that allow for sufficient drainage. As mentioned above, Encore Azaleas do not like a constantly soggy soil.

Sun: Encore Azaleas will grow in sun or part shade. For best flowering and reblooming, we recommend at least 4 hours or more of direct sunlight per day. All-day lightly filtered sun, such as under tall trees, is okay. In regions that experience very hot summers with intense sunlight, Encore Azaleas might appreciate a break from direct sun during the mid afternoon hours.

Four stars cause I’m waiting for it to bloom. Had the little tree for a couple of weeks. The tree came in excellent condition. Always wanted one but the prices were too high.

I received 2 more azalea’s (makes it 5 now) as always very well packed, very healthy plants, and they are doing well (if the deer leave them alone!)
You kept me informed, thankyou.

I am very pleased with everything I have ordered from Wilson Bros Gardens. I have a thing for Azaleas, and low and behold, you had such a great selection of them! The shrubs arrived very well protected for shipping and the shrubs themselves were healthy and of a good size. My only suggestion would be that when shipping multiples of the same shrub and size, I would have liked the bushes to be closer to the same size. Whether smaller or bigger, because I am doing an “iNSTANT” landscape, but that is probably not practical.
I would not HESITATE to order from Wilson Brothers Gardens! I am thrilled with the shipping being included in price, the sizes available and the variety! i check back often to see what is new!
Thanks guys! Keep up the good work!—————————————We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy them for years to come! And you can always note when you order for our staff to try and send plants are as close to the same size as possible. Thanks for the great review! Thanks for the kind words! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG

I received my plants quickly and in beautiful condition. I order a lot of plants online and this was a test run with Wilson Bros. They passed with flying colors. I will order with them again.————————————–We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy them for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG

4 Encore Azaleas arrived by FED EX this evening in pristine condition. Packing around plants was exactly how web site described. The azaleas appeared to be in better condition than if purchased from a local nursery.————————————–We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy them for years to come!

Since this plant was ordered for autumn planting, I cannot comment on its blooming. However, I am more than satisfied with how the order was executed. It arrived soon after being ordered and in Wilson Brothers’ usual efficient and protective packaging, leaving the plant undamaged in transit. It has taken well to transplanting and seems ready to greet our Pittsburgh winter. I look forward to seeing it greet our spring.————————————————–We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy it for years to come! Thanks for the great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG
