Fifty years ago, Southern Living magazine’s first cover featured a Mobile, Ala., home overlooking a verdant, azalea-laden lawn. For the magazine’s celebratory 50th anniversary issue, we at Encore Azalea teamed up with Southern Living editors to step back in time and recreate the photo. Take a look at the video via this link. Encore Azalea is the best azalea you'll ever plant. Encore Azaleas are the world's best-selling re-blooming azalea with rich, colorful blooms in spring, summer and fall. Encore Azaleas have 33 varieties of bloom colors and sizes to choose from and thrive equally well in high filtered shade or sunny locations - unlike any other azalea in the world.

"Encore Azalea is one of my favorite shrubs in landscape design. I love that it is hardy, low maintenance and above all, you can have a multitude of colors to choose from. My clients love them too. You won’t be disappointed."
"Our Encore Azaleas produce consistent flowers year-round especially when planted in more sun. We have also found that they are significantly more resistant to lace bug when compared to other azaleas that we are growing."
"Absolutely Lovely! Planted two Autumn Sunbursts in the spring. Arrived healthy and large. Blooming now in a flood of corals and white. Easily my favorite Encore Azaleas. Buying more now. Highly recommended."
