Looking for an award-winning blooming shrub for your landscape? Then look no further than the Autumn Royalty Encore Azalea! The Autumn Royalty was voted Azalea of the Year by the American Rhododendron Society, and it earned it! This azalea features large single-form, deeply funneled, magenta-purple blooms that rebloom periodically from spring to the onset of winter. The initial spring bloom will produce a multitude of gorgeous purple flowers. These flowers coat the Encore Royalty, creating quite a display. However, that's not it for this reblooming azalea. It's capable of blooming 3 times a year! Additionally, some warmer zones have the potential for even more. The Autumn Royalty is a reliably evergreen landscape element. New foliage emerges a delicate light green before maturing to a rich dark green. These leaves are fuzzy, elliptic, and pointed at the tip. This is one of the larger Encore Azaleas, reaching a mature size of 4.5 H x 4 W. At that size, it's perfect as a low-maintenance hedge, specimen, or accent. Otherwise, try it as a container plant or mass planting. However you use it, you'll appreciate its high bloom potential and eye-catching flowers.Planting- Water before planting; Plant in full sun to part shade; Dig hole 3X the width of pot; Backfill and plant 1-2 above soil level; Water and add more soil if needed; Mulch plants
