Care
Encore® Azalea Autumn Majesty Care
Plant in Full Sun to Partial Shade. Increased sun exposure typically promotes stronger blooming, while afternoon shade can be beneficial in hotter climates.
Grow in well-drained, slightly acidic soil. Mulch around the root zone to retain moisture and moderate soil temperature.
Water regularly during the first growing season to establish roots. Once established, maintain consistent moisture, particularly during extended dry periods.
Apply slow release fertilizer formulated for acid-loving plants in early spring.
Lightly prune after the primary spring bloom cycle to maintain shape. Avoid pruning after midsummer, as flower buds form on mature growth.
Container Growing: Use a container with drainage holes and acidic potting mix. Container-grown plants require more frequent watering than those planted in the ground. In colder portions of Zone 6, provide winter protection for container-grown plants.
