  </Select.Content>

</Select.Root>

Use the size prop to control the size.

<Flex gap="3" align="center">

  <Select.Root size="1" defaultValue="apple">

    <Select.Trigger />

    <Select.Content>

      <Select.Item value="apple">Apple</Select.Item>

      <Select.Item value="orange">Orange</Select.Item>

    </Select.Content>

  </Select.Root>



  <Select.Root size="2" defaultValue="apple">

    <Select.Trigger />

    <Select.Content>

      <Select.Item value="apple">Apple</Select.Item>

      <Select.Item value="orange">Orange</Select.Item>

    </Select.Content>

  </Select.Root>



  <Select.Root size="3" defaultValue="apple">

    <Select.Trigger />

    <Select.Content>

      <Select.Item value="apple">Apple</Select.Item>

      <Select.Item value="orange">Orange</Select.Item>

    </Select.Content>

  </Select.Root>

</Flex>

    <Select.Content>

      <Select.Item value="apple">Apple</Select.Item>

      <Select.Item value="orange">Orange</Select.Item>

    </Select.Content>

  </Select.Root>
