FRAXINUS pennsylvanica 'Cimmzam' Cimmaron®	Cimmaron Ash
Height: 45' - 60'	Flower: inconspicuous
Spread: 30'	Fruit: seedless
Shape: upright, oval	Foliage: rich dark green

A superior new seedless cultivar with outstanding characteristics, Cimmaron® naturally produces a strong trunk, an excellent lateral branching system and a straight central leader. The evenly branched structure of Cimmaron® forms strong upright angles, which cup at the ends, providing strong resistance to storm and snow damage and offers excellent wind passage. The rich glimmering green foliage of summer turns to a deep burgundy in September. As the weather cools, the color changes again, first to a fiery brick red in October and finally heralding the autumn season in a spectacular finale of flaming orange. Cimmaron® is salt tolerant.
