‘Autumn Embers’ Encore azalea in 2 gallon container arrived healthy and in bloom. I have it planted in a special azalea mix because we live on clay soil with a pH above 8.0. I bought Autumn Embers because I was on a Zoom call and our guest speaker was an LSU emeritus professor who specialized in azaleas. He said ‘Autumn Embers’ was the longest blooming azalea of all the 33 varieties of Encore azaleas.
