About Autumn Moonlight® Encore® Azalea

The Autumn Moonlight is an Encore® Azalea that produces an abundant display of beautiful white double blooms in spring summer and fall. The beautiful blooms contrast nicely against the dark lustrous green foliage. The Autumn Moonlight is cold hardy down to USDA zone 7. Encore® Azaleas are known for their ability to tolerate full sun better than traditional azaleas, so make sure to plant them in a location that will receive 4-6 hours of direct sunlight, with some shade during the afternoon heat. Encore Moonlight is great for planting in the landscape or in container gardens and will perform best in slightly acidic well-drained garden soil. Apply a slow-release granular fertilizer in spring.

Autumn Moonlight Encore Azalea Spacing Recommendations

Space Your Autumn Moonlight Encore Azalea 3 feet apart for a seamless planting. Otherwise, plant them 4+feet apart for space between plantings.

    I ordered an Autumn Moonlight azalea and it was shipped quick and it was still moist and in beautiful condition with a couple of blooms opened when I received it. I would recommend this company and I will do business here again.

    Ordered thirteen 3 gallon Autumn Moonlight Encore Azaleas. When I pulled them from the containers to plant found 1/2 of the container was fresh soil, no roots, so instead of 3 gallon azaleas I received 2 gallon azaleas in 3 gallon containers. This is NOT what I paid for and am requesting reimbursement for the difference between the 2 gallon and 3 gallon price.

      Good morning Mr Dorfuss. Please contact customer service for these types of issues. I have been very quick and thorough in helping you in the past.- Christy

    How tall are the azaleas in the 2 gallon pot? 3 gallon pot?

    I ordered 9 2-gallon Autumn Moonlight azaleas. They arrived quickly, were well packed, and were healthy. This was my first time buying from this site, and I’m very happy that I did.

    Ordered two 3 gallon Autumn Moonlight Encore Azaleas. When I pulled them from the containers to plant found 1/3 of the container was fresh soil, no roots, so instead of 3 gallon azaleas I received 2 gallon azaleas in 3 gallon containers. Not what I expected or paid for. Will give this experience two stars as the plants were healthy and in great shape for being shipped.

    Had been looking for a white azalea for quite a while and was fortunate to find the 2 gal Autumn Moonlight here at Plants By Mail. It arrived much larger than I expected and was packed very well in a vented box. Looking forward to seeing blooms.

    I ordered 6 of these azaleas after calling many local nurseries throughout TX to eventually find out that the “local grower” no longer offers Autumn Moonlight Encore Azaelas. Based on customer reviews alone, I placed my order with Plants By Mail. There was a minor mixup with the fulfillment of my order, but this was very quickly and efficiently resolved with a call to super-friendly customer service. All 6 plants were extremely securely packaged, shipped via FedEx, and healthy and in bloom upon arrival. All have been planted for approximately a month now. They are healthy, still in bloom, and have lots of new growth. All in all I could not have expected a better experience. I will definitely be a return customer in the spring.

    Received plants and they were still damp. Perfect condition. Very healthy.

  12. Isabel (verified owner)

    the plants arrived well packed and I planted them the next day. They look amazing and given a few flowers. I will order more plants next year.

  13. Phnyllis Copley (verified owner)

    I was looking for a azalea that would grow at least 5 or more feet tall and rebloom. When these plants arrived they were very green and packed great. Since we planted one of them has produced a beautiful white bloom. Can’t wait until they all start to bloom and then when they are full grown but I know I have to wait. It will be hard.

    • nick norman

      I completely agree. Waiting is SOOOO hard. But your Autumn Moonlight is going to be spectacular!
