Plant Encore® Autumn Sunburst® Reblooming Azalea in well-drained, acidic soil with a pH of 5.5 to 6.5. Choose a location with 4-6 hours of direct sunlight daily. Water regularly to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Fertilize in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer formulated for azaleas. Prune after the first bloom cycle to maintain shape and encourage reblooming. Protect from harsh winter winds and extreme temperatures.
