- University of Florida "Multi-stemmed, topped, and trimmed trees grow a
wider crown and are probably not as suited for narrow,
limited-space downtown sites as their single-stemmed
counterparts. The tree should be grown with a central
trunk. Young trees which are topped in the nursery
grow several upright, multiple trunks. These
eventually droop to the horizontal and then become
more weeping, creating an unkempt, asymmetrical
mess. Training the tree into a single-trunked tree will
increase its durability and resistance to storm-damage,
although many nurseries offer multi-trunked
specimens." - University of Arkansas
