Care
Encore® Azalea Autumn Majesty Care
Provide full sun to partial shade; however, more sun encourages better blooming. Too much shade may reduce flower production.
Plant in well-drained, slightly acidic soil. Mulch around the base of the plant to retain moisture and regulate soil temperature.
Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a deep root system. Once established, Encore Azaleas are moderately drought-tolerant. Be sure to water more frequently during dry spells.
Fertilize in early spring after the first bloom cycle with a slow-release fertilizer to support vigorous growth and abundant flowering. Our [slow release fertilizer](care section) is a great option.
Prune lightly after spring blooms to promote bushier growth and enhance subsequent flowering. Avoid pruning after midsummer to allow the plant to set buds for the next season.
Protect from extreme cold in zones 6 by applying mulch around the root zone in late fall to insulate against harsh winter temperatures.
