Abstract
⺠Leaf angle distributions of 58 broadleaf tree species in temperate/boreal zone reported. ⺠75 leaves enough for reliable estimates of tree level mean leaf angle distribution. ⺠No seasonality of leaf angles of the selected tree species, except directly after budburst. ⺠Spherical leaf angle distribution not a valid assumption for most of the studied species. ⺠Planophile or plagiophile leaf angle distribution more appropriate.
