Autumn Twist is a beautiful evergreen shrub with white and pale pink flowers that have splashes, spots, and stripes of dark pink and purple, making each flower unique. It grows in a mounded, upright habit and can reach 4-6 feet tall and wide. The shrub blooms almost every season, starting from mid-spring and ending in the fall. This shrub attracts butterflies, hummingbirds, and other pollinators, adding vibrance and life to any garden all year. The Encore Azalea is a colorful and versatile evergreen shrub that has transformed the way we use azaleas in landscaping. These shrubs bring vivid blooms to sunny locations in the spring and again in the late summer to fall. They come in a range of sizes and colors, making them a great addition to any garden.
Choosing your Encore Azalea:
When selecting your Encore Azalea, first determine the size you want the plant to grow. Some Encores grow as large as 5 1/2 feet, while others are dwarf, growing only 2 1/2 feet tall. Next, choose your desired color. The right Encore can integrate into a pink/blue/purple color scheme, and others fit seamlessly into an orange-yellow color palette.
Plant Care:
Autumn Twist is very easy to care for, tolerates heat, humidity, and some drought, and grows in clay, sandy, or loamy soil. It enjoys full to partial sun and is drought tolerant once established. A thick layer of mulch helps reduce watering needs and protects the roots in summer and winter. Pruning is not necessary, but branches can be trimmed after spring blooming is complete.
