Rhododendron Conlep
Autumn Twise Encore Azalea
Autumn Twist, the Encore azalea cultivar Conlep, carries white flowers marked with purple stripes. Some flowers may be entirely purple. Dark green evergreen leaves form a dense, upright shrub that blooms in spring and can repeat in summer and fall.
Plant in acidic, well-drained soil. Provide regular water while roots establish and enough light for flowering; afternoon shade is helpful in hot areas. Its size suits a flowering hedge, screen or specimen.
