In 1998, the release of the first reblooming Encore Azalea changed the Azalea world forever. Since then, over 30 Encore varieties have been released. When provided enough sunlight (6 or more hours per day) all varieties bloom in spring and then repeat summer into fall. Autumn Cheer Encore Azalea produces masses of dainty, 1.25-inch diameter bright pink blooms in spring, summer, and fall that cover the lustrous green foliage. If an explosion of pink is what you're looking for, Autumn Cheer is for you! University trials have shown Autumn Cheer to be one of the most cold tolerant Encore Azalea varieties in the series. Butterflies love the flowers and blooming branches are great for cutting and use to create stunning indoor floral arrangements..
Note: The plant is shipped in its pot, firmly secured with several layers of clear tape, thereby avoiding any shuffling and moving during transit. The plant reaches you with minimal damage- very safe and secure. We have been shipping plants like this for several years (plant are sometimes shipped in smaller pots for safety and ease of shipping). Most plants go dormant in fall and winter and will lose most of their leaves - looking dead and dry - very normal. They will flush out in spring. We cannot send ship some plants and some sizes to California due to restrictions placed by department of agriculture."
