Give you garden long-season color with Azalea × 'Encore® Autumn Twist®' (Evergreen Azalea 'Encore® Autumn Twist®'), a reblooming evergreen azalea known for its white flowers striped with purple plus occasional solid-purple blooms. You will enjoy glossy, dark green foliage as a steady backdrop, while repeat bloom cycles add interest from spring into the warmer months.

Plant it where you can provide 4-6 hours of direct sun for best flowering; in hotter locations, morning sun with afternoon shade helps protect foliage and blooms. Choose well-drained, consistently moist, acidic soil and add organic matter if needed. Keep the root zone evenly moist during establishment, then water deeply during heat or drought, especially ahead of bloom cycles.

Mulch 2-3 inches to conserve moisture and moderate soil temperature, keeping mulch off stems. Prune lightly, if needed, right after the spring flush so you do not remove developing buds for later blooms. With a mature size around 48-60 inches tall and about 36-48 inches wide, use it for foundations, borders, containers, or mass plantings where you want repeat color and an evergreen structure year-round.
