Fire Red, Three-Season Blooms!

Why Autumn Bonfire® Encore® Azalea?

If you’re looking for a plant with show-stopping blooms, the Autumn Bonfire® Encore® Azalea delivers, with rose-red flowers. What’s more, you'll have enough time to really enjoy the flowers on this dwarf shrub, since it blooms for three seasons: spring, summer, and fall! Another beautiful and unique feature of this variety is that it has both single and semi-double blooms, meaning that some flowers will bloom with more petals than others. 

Gardeners often choose to plant the Autumn Bonfire® Encore® Azalea along borders, in mass plantings, or among other greenery to add vibrant pops of red. Unlike full-size Azaleas, you could also use this variety in foundation plantings, as it only grows to a full size of 3 to 4 feet high and wide. It also reaches its full height more quickly than other Azaleas, after only five years, and thrives in both full or partial sun.

About Encore® Azaleas: Encore® Azaleas is dedicated to crafting vibrant, low-maintenance, and cold-hardy azaleas that bloom throughout spring, summer, and fall. Each azalea in this collection is reblooming. With all varieties being naturally compact or intermediate in size, you'll effortlessly find the perfect fit for your garden needs.

Why FastGrowingTrees.com is Better

The Autumn Bonfire® Encore® Azalea offers fast-growing, abundant blooms for multiple seasons of enjoyment. Its tough, easy-to-grow characteristics mixed with its versatility and fiery red flowers are pure perfection. With this Azalea, you can be confident you're getting a quality product that will perform beautifully. Order your own Autumn Bonfire® Encore® Azalea, and you'll quickly fall in love!

They have planted and when

They have planted and when they arrived they were very healthy looking. I am hoping that they grow and spread into a beautiful hedge of red flowers

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertThat’s going to be a gorgeous hedge, Laura! The Autumn Bonfire Encore Azalea is such a vibrant variety and a full row of those red blooms is going to be breathtaking. We’re so glad they arrived healthy and we hope they take off quickly for you. Thank you for the update!

Stunning!

New landscaping for newly constructed home in Columbus, Ohio area. We ordered three autumn bonfire azaleas and they are absolutely stunning! They arrived healthy on May 19th and they were already budding and blooming 30 days later! We also ordered 24 Sky Pencil Holly for natural privacy fencing, 3 (+1 more) Leprechaun Arborvitae to hide utility boxes on backyard easement, 2 Scotch Penguin, and a Tamukeyama Japanese Maple Tree. They all arrived at the same time and were very healthy! We followed Fast Growing Trees planting and watering advice and in the last 30 days there has been significant growth on everything. We have been so pleased we ordered five Dolce® Wildberry Heuchera (Coral Bells (arrives mid July) and two Muskogee Crape Myrtle Trees (arrives September) and can't wait for them to arrive! Thank you Fast Growing Trees!

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertWhat a beautiful start to a new home, thank you so much for sharing all of this! Autumn Bonfire azaleas budding and blooming just 30 days after arrival alongside such a thoughtfully planned collection of plants is so exciting to hear. We're really glad the planting and watering guidance made such a difference and we're thrilled you're already planning the next additions. The Dolce Wildberry Heuchera and Muskogee Crape Myrtles are going to be wonderful additions and we can't wait to hear how they settle in!

Arrived in great shape and

Arrived in great shape and got it in the flower bed same day. Got lucky and had rain a couple times right away. It’s happy in its new home! Will it bloom this season? Can’t wait!And the 2 Strawberry Vanilla Hydrangeas have grown at least 6 inches since April and they have buds and the beginnings of the panicles all over! Terrific !

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertWhat a fantastic update, Nola! It sounds like your new Autumn Bonfire® Encore® Azalea Shrub couldn't have asked for a better welcome with fresh rain after planting. There's a good chance you'll see some blooms this season, and hearing how well your Strawberry Vanilla Hydrangeas are doing makes us just as excited. We hope your garden keeps getting more beautiful each week!

Has not bloomed yet but

Has not bloomed yet but foliage is great!

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertThank you for sharing your review! We are so happy to hear that your Autumn Bonfire® Encore® Azalea is settled in and looking great with healthy foliage. It is completely normal not to see blooms just one month after planting. Azaleas direct their initial energy into establishing a strong root system in their new soil before they start pushing out flowers. The wonderful thing about the Encore® series is that they are bred to bloom in multiple flush cycles throughout the spring, summer, and fall. Since your foliage is thriving, it means the shrub is very healthy and simply gearing up for its next blooming window. Keep doing exactly what you are doing!
