It really glows, like the embers of a fire and it is covered with blooms for 9 months of the year, with peaks in spring and a brilliant encore in the fall. Of all the Encore Azaleas, Autumn Embers has the most striking flower color, a dusky salmon red that really stands out, yet blends with many other colors in the garden. Not only can it be grown in the garden, it makes a beautiful plant for a planter or container, especially if your soil is not quite suitable for these acid-loving plants. In fact this is such a beautiful azalea that no garden should be without it. If you like the spring showing of azaleas but find them boring the rest of the year, this is also the azalea variety you should grow. It prefers rather more sun than many other azaleas, so if you have a sunny garden and thought you could not grow azaleas because they need shade, this is the azalea variety for you to grow. It can be grown in all the milder parts of the country and will thrive best in acidic soil conditions.

This plant does well in full sun or partial shade and is more tolerant of heat than other azaleas. If you do not have acid soil, you can treat them in the ground, or grow them in a container, which really allows them to be seen at their best.
