The Autumn Sunset Encore Azalea (Rhododendron 'Robled') is a captivating cultivar of azalea celebrated for its profuse and extended bloom season, embellishing gardens with its warm, orange-red flowers from spring until fall. Developed by plant breeder Robert E. "Buddy" Lee, the Autumn Sunset Encore Azalea is part of the Encore Azalea series, a group of hybrid azaleas bred specifically for their enduring blooming capabilities. This evergreen shrub is highly valued for its striking floral display and the ability to add vibrant color to the landscape throughout the growing season.
The Autumn Sunset Encore Azalea is a compact, mounding shrub that typically grows to a height of 4-5 feet and a similar width. The plant features evergreen, elliptical to obovate leaves that are dark green in color, with a glossy texture that provides a beautiful contrast against the vivid orange-red flowers.
This versatile azalea thrives in a variety of growing conditions, flourishing in both partial shade and full sun, although it prefers some protection from intense afternoon sun. It is well-suited to acidic, well-draining soil and benefits from regular watering and fertilization, particularly during the growing season.
The standout feature of the Autumn Sunset Encore Azalea is its abundant and extended bloom season, lasting from spring through fall. The shrub produces large, funnel-shaped flowers that are a striking orange-red color, creating a warm and inviting display. The flowers measure approximately 2.5 inches in diameter and appear in clusters at the ends of the branches.
The extended blooming season of the Autumn Sunset Encore Azalea ensures that the garden remains lively and colorful throughout the growing season, making it an excellent choice for borders, foundation plantings, or as a specimen plant in the landscape.
