Description
Acer x freemanii ‘Sienna’ Sienna Glen® Red Maple is a hybrid cultivar resulting from a cross between the native Silver Maple (Acer saccharinum) and Red Maple (Acer rubrum), developed to combine the best traits of both species. Renowned for its vibrant, fiery red fall foliage that often intensifies to shades of orange and yellow, this fast-growing deciduous tree offers exceptional autumn color display in landscapes. ‘Sienna’ is valued for its strong, uniform branching structure and improved resistance to common maple diseases and pests, making it a low-maintenance option for urban and suburban settings. Its adaptability to a variety of soil types and tolerance for wet or dry conditions further enhance its landscape utility. The cultivar’s moderate size and rounded crown make it suitable for street tree planting and residential yards, where it provides ample shade and visual interest throughout the seasons. Recognized for its ornamental appeal, Sienna Glen® Red Maple has been highlighted by horticultural organizations for its superior fall color and resilient growth habit.
