The Autumn Majesty Encore Azalea promises to bring bounties of beautiful blooms to your landscape! The Autumn Majesty produces rich semi-double, fuchsia purple blooms that have a delicately ruffled appearance to them. Blooms first appear in the spring in an impressive display. Afterward, this Encore Azalea will continue the show by reblooming in summer and fall.
The eye-catching fuchsia purple azalea blossoms rest atop vivid green foliage. New growth emerges a bright green before maturing to a deep green.
The Autumn Majesty Encore Azalea is a compact-sized Encore Azalea and reaches a mature size of 3′ H x 3′ W.
Try this fuchsia purple blooming azalea as a foundation planting, accent, border, hedge, or container plant. However you use it, you really can’t go wrong!
This variety is naturally compact, with a rounded growth habit. Therefore, pruning is traditionally unnecessary with this low-maintenance variety.
Hardy from USDA Zones 6-10. Furthermore, the Autumn Majesty is one of the most cold-hardy Azaleas around and is capable of surviving down to -5° F when established.
Provide 4-6 hours of sun daily for proper blooming. The morning sun is preferable, as intense afternoon sun can stress the plant. Less than 4 hours of sun can result in decreased blooms and less dense foliage.
The Autumn Majesty Encore Azalea, like most azaleas, prefers slightly acidic, rich soil with good drainage.
Water regularly for the first growing season, 2-3 times per week in average weather conditions. During the second growing season, water 1-2 times per week. This will help your Encore Majesty to produce deep roots which will help ensure its success in the long run.
Fertilize in early spring with balanced, acidic plant fertilizer. Reapply fertilizer again in early summer to promote faster plant growth.
For a seamless planting, plant your Autumn Majesty Encore Azalea 3 feet apart. Alternatively, space them 4+ feet apart for gaps between plants.

I have made 2 purchases and I’m extremely happy with both. I will definitely be ordering more plants from this company. My azalea arrived with blooms already on the plant.

My Autumn Majesty Azalea looked distressed when it arrived, it may have been due to the traveling distance to get here but I had the perfect location for planting it & it perked up & seems to be doing fine.

I was on the waitlist for Autumn Majesty Azalea and when it became available, I immediately bought 2. This was my first time ordering plants online and was anxious about their appearance once delivered. To my surprise, my Encore Autumn Majesties arrived well-boxed, healthy, and watered well. This was my first time ordering from PBM. I will be ordering again and would definitely recommend this site. Thank you 🙂

Received 2 large, healthy plants. Well packed and arrived timely. A few smaller broken twigs, but nothing that affects the health or appearance. I will definitely order again in the future.
