What Is Canopy Spread and Why Does It Matter?
Canopy spread is the width of the crown. It decides how much floor space a tree occupies, how it reads from upper levels, and how much volume it takes in a container.
The commercial consequencesA wide crown looks better from above and costs more to ship. Narrow atriums need slimmer crowns than open lobbies.
Specifying itCanopy width is configured with height on custom builds, so the proportion suits the space rather than a stock shape.
