Encore Azaleas are bred to bloom in spring, summer and fall. Autumn Belle Encore Azalea, Rhododendron 'Robleo', is a reblooming stunner with pink blooms flecked with red. Encore varieties begin flowering in spring, and once done, new shoots grow and set buds for summer color. This continues until fall cold. The gorgeous shrub also is evergreen, so it works well for borders and privacy.
You also can feature Autumn Belle Encore Azalea in a special part of your landscape. The mature plant reaches 5 feet high and 4 feet wide in an upright growth. Use one or two as a screen for unsightly fixtures in your yard or just as a pretty pink centerpiece in garden beds. The 2.5-inch flowers attract birds and butterflies to your garden. Autumn Belle is cold hardy to zone 7 and heat tolerant to zone 10.
Autumn Belle Encore Azalea Care
Plant Autumn Belle Encore Azalea in full to partial sun. Dig a hole twice as large as the root ball, loosen the roots, and place some organic matter in the planting hole. Be sure the top of the root ball is just above ground level. Water your azalea regularly after planting through just before freezing temperatures arrive. Mulch around the base of the plants in summer to keep the roots cool, retain moisture and help warm roots in winter.
Autumn Belle Encore Azalea Spacing
Autumn Belle Encore Azalea can give you year-round color as a border or hedge. Place the shrubs about 4 feet apart from center to center.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
