How to Care for the Plant

Pruning
The best time to trim Autumn Moonlight Encore Azalea Shrubs is after the blossoms have faded and before the new blossom buds have started. If you prune azaleas after the beginning of July, you may not get any flowers on the bush next year.
Fertilizer
Fertilize once at the beginning of each spring — after the fear of frost has passed. You may find that this will be the only time you need to fertilize. However, if you feel you need to fertilize again, do so before August.
Sunlight
Fast growing upright variety with light green foliage and white ruffled flowers.
