Acacia salicina is traced through a resistant and retardant plant reference. The named document establishes the selected lineage for willow wattle and remains indexed in the source table.

The plant is on-list in the compiled recommendations. Its supporting trail is retained in the listing evidence, apart from the document that supplies the fire-related lineage.

The overall source pack is limited evidence. Its present extent is visible in the cited rows, with no unrecorded material condition or measured value added to complete the profile.

How to read this page

The status above is computed from the cited rows below: independent recommendations can support a fire-resistant result, an avoid row can produce keep-away, and disagreement stays visible as conflict. Placement notes preserve each source’s own scheme rather than translating unlike rules into one scale. This is evidence about a plant, not permission to plant it in every part of the defensible space; Zone 0 remains noncombustible.

Native and introduced range evidence

These are exact U.S. botanical-area records from the cited range source. Native and introduced describe biogeographic relationship, not fire performance or planting approval. Doubtful and extinct rows stay visible but do not count as current presence.

The lossless worldwide derivative is retained once in the research corpus; object pages repeat only exact U.S. areas needed by the local lens. The JSON twin carries the same page assertions.

The evidence

Grouped by what each source concluded. Primary evidence rated the plant itself (a lab, field program, or original curation); corroboration compiled or republished another source's rating and resolves to its root lineage.
