Description
The ‘Echo’ Bloom N Again Azalea is the showiest of all reblooming azaleas we’ve ever seen…and it’s heat and sun resistant. In spring it features an abundance of mesmerizingly brilliant fluorescent fuchsia flowers that glow like no other in the landscape. Then, in July to early August a second bloom cycle begins that continues all the way to November. Butterflies love the flowers, and blooming branches serve very well for cutting to create stunning indoor floral arrangements. Growing up to 6 feet tall and wide it is a great choice for an accent in flowering shrub borders or in groupings or as a colorful hedge.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing 6 feet tall and wide, the ‘Echo’ Bloom ‘N Again Azalea is ideal for use as an accent in flowering shrub borders or in groupings, mass plantings or as a colorful hedge or screen in larger landscape borders and home foundation plantings. A fine addition to pink or fuchsia theme gardens, Azalea gardens, cottage gardens and butterfly and hummingbird gardens.
Spacing: 4-5′ for solid hedges; 8’+ for space between plants

Growing Preferences
When planted right and in the right spot, Bloom ‘N Again Azaleas are very easy to grow and long-lived. They were bred in the South so are exceptionally heat tolerant but are also cold tolerant.
Soil. In the ground, Bloom ‘N Again Azaleas adapt well to most soil types, provided the soil is well-drained. In general, like all other azaleas, the Bloom ‘N Agains prefer an organically rich, moist but well-drained acidic soil. Heavy clay or other poor draining soils can be amended with bagged top soil, potting soil or other soil amendments to enhance soil porosity.
In Containers: When growing Azaleas in containers we suggest a 50/50 blend of professional potting mix and potting soil. Know that whether growing in the ground or in containers, constantly soggy or wet soil is problematic for azaleas, and most other plants for that matter.
Sun. Echo Bloom N Again Azalea will grow in full sun to part shade. Pick a spot in the garden that receives at least 6 hours of direct sunlight to help produce beautiful blooms and lush foliage. All-day lightly filtered sun, such as under tall trees, is okay.

All 8 of the Azaleas I purchased arrived in great shape over 2 different days. They were planted according to your instructions. 2 were planted next to my 8 other very mature Azaleas. Hopefully, they will mature as the others have. All 8 are in bloom. My wife is ecstatic about these Azaleas.———————————————————-We are so glad yall are pleased and we hope you enjoy them for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG
I ordered 3 gallon pot Azalea bushes in October and they look so healthy!! I was worried they would be damaged since they were shipped through the mail but Wilson Bros did an outstanding job packing them. They also have excellent customer service. I received my order right away. I will definitely continue ordering from this company.——————————————–We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy them for years to come! Thanks for the kind words and great review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG
These 2 are part of the the 10 or so azaleas I have ordered from Wilson Bros. They are beautiful & coming into full bloom! Love the quality & care they put into their products. The very best online as far as I’m concerned. I live in FL and their really isn’t a selection of zone 10a plants available in most nurseries especially the chain stores.———————————We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy them for years to come!
