Encore Starburst is a compact reblooming azalea that flowers in spring, repeats through summer, and finishes with a fall show. The blooms are a cheerful bicolor of coral-red and white, so a single shrub reads as a bouquet. It stays around three feet tall and slightly wider.

Like all Encores it takes more light than old-fashioned azaleas: part sun to nearly full sun suits it, in acidic, well-drained soil. Mulch the shallow roots, water through the first summer, and shape lightly right after the spring bloom if needed.
