Rhododendron Autumn Fire ('Roblez') (PBR) (Encore Azalea Series)
twice flowering evergreen azalea
One of the new breed of repeat-flowering azaleas, 'Autumn Fire' can produce a generous flush of rich red trumpets in late spring and early summer, but then flower intermittently again from midsummer to early autumn.
