Hi,
Could you please help me to understand what "overhead vegetable canopy" means?
Is it the area under the green tunel with ivy or simillar plants?
Or maybe a pavement under the tree conopy also counts?
Thank you in advance!

Hi Agnieszka,
As stated in LEED guide, the overhead vegetated canopy is described as turf and shrub (SSC – Open Space page 179) and turf grass under overhead tree canopies can be counted in total open space but do not qualify as vegetated open space.
