Encore Azalea Expands Grower NetworkSource: Encore Azalea

Encore Azalea, a leading azalea brand that blooms, spring, summer and fall, has added five new wholesale grower partners to its Encore Azalea licensed grower group.

The new growers include : Bracy’s Nursery (Louisiana), Carolina Nurseries (South Carolina), Hackney Nursery (Florida), Hines Nurseries (Arizona, California, Texas and Oregon) and Windmill Nursery (Louisiana).

“The addition of these quality grower partners will expand Encore Azalea availability to more consumers in our current distribution area and provide much-needed increased distribution in California,” said Kip McConnell, director of Plant Development Services, Inc.

Encore Azaleas begin blooming each spring like a traditional azalea. Once this initial blooming concludes, new shoots begin to grow and set buds. Blooms emerge again in mid-summer and continue in many areas until first frost.
