The Encore Azalea Autumn Carnival is a vibrant, evergreen shrub known for its stunning display of bright pink blooms. Flowering in spring, summer, and fall, this azalea offers continuous bursts of color throughout the growing season. Its compact, bushy form makes it an excellent choice for borders, foundation plantings, and container gardens. Disease-resistant and low-maintenance, the Autumn Carnival brings a festive touch to any landscape with its vivid, show-stopping flowers. Unlike many traditional azalea bushes, Encore Azaleas bloom best in full sun, so choose an area of your yard where they can receive at least 4-6 hours of sunlight. Autumn Carnival Azalea shrubs work well in foundation plantings or as a low-growing hedge. Be sure to plant your Encore Azaleas in acidic to slightly acidic soil to maximize your bloom yield. Fertilize this pink blooming Azalea in the spring with a balanced fertilizer after the threat of the last frost has dissipated and feed once more in the summer to help you Encore Carnival bloom through fall. Encore Azalea is the world's best-selling multi-season blooming azalea. In many areas of the country, Encore Azalea bloom during 3 seasons of the year-spring, summer, and fall. And, for areas of the country where azaleas don't traditionally thrive, such as those in USDA hardiness Zone 6 and 7, you will see a spring or summer bloom, but not a fall bloom before your temperatures drops.
