Autumn Royalty™ Encore® Azalea (Azalea x ‘Conlec’ PP#10580) is a broadleaf evergreen shrub with stunning four-inch pink to purple blooms that appear in spring and continue into fall. Its glossy green foliage provides year-round interest, making it a versatile choice for containers, foundation plantings, and garden accents.

This compact, repeat-blooming azalea also works beautifully as a hedge, offering four seasons of color and structure in the landscape.

Autumn Royalty™ Encore® Azalea Care

Plant high to ensure good drainage. Azaleas perform best in acidic soil, which can be amended with chelated iron if necessary. Keep soil consistently moist until the plant is established. Prune only to shape after the first bloom period in spring. Fertilize in late winter or early spring to support upcoming blooms.

Autumn Royalty™ Encore® Azalea Spacing

For specimen plantings or single accents, plant 3 feet apart, center to center. When establishing a hedge, maintain the same 3-foot spacing for a dense, colorful screen.
