 Can anyone name this azalea for me? It was bought many years ago and we would like another but cannot locate it on the web. It is yellow and orange separate petals on the same bloom not bicolour/striped petals in yellow and orange. The nearest i can find is flame but its not quite the same and we where sure it was a encore variety.

    Thanks thats one of the ones i had on the shortlist of ones i had whittled it down to. Only other clues i know are its not a encore as bought before 2015 and its deciduous.

    There are many deciduous azaleas a bit too similar.  Ask Millais, they offer Klondyke.

    For the past few purchases I have gone for choosing an unnamed seedling.  Millais and Reuthes.  Scent has been my main criterion.  It needs a visit.
