Since the late 90's to the present, the nursery I help to manage, Wilson Bros. After many years, the Encore azaleas were ready for their gardening debut. Inspired, he began crossing traditional spring-blooming azaleas with the rare Taiwanese summer-blooming azalea, Rhododendron oldhamii. Lee first envisioned Encore azaleas in the early 1980s when he found a tray of azalea cuttings blooming in the summer sun at his small Louisiana azalea nursery. Encore azaleas were developed by Louisiana nursery grower and plant breeder Robert E. This unique bloom season continues through the fall, and the curtain doesn’t drop until the onset of cold weather.

The Encore azalea's “second act” opens when these buds begin blooming into full flower in mid-summer. Once this “first act” of blooming concludes, new shoots begin to grow and set buds. They begin their performance with the spring flowering season. Encore Azaleas debuted in the late 1990s and are the only patented azaleas to bloom in spring, summer and fall.
