Correa glabra derives its selected lineage from a fire-resistant and retardant plant reference. The named source is indexed with the rest of the evidence table.

This plant remains limited evidence, based on the accepted source coverage now available. The boundary is visible in the documented rows, without filling the record with unspecified test circumstances.

The species also remains on-list. Its recommendation is supported by the listing evidence, a source role kept distinct from the reference that establishes the record's fire-related lineage.

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.

Where its sources say to plant it

Placement rules below use each source's own distances or named zones, tied to its rating. They are not interchangeable with the directory's current Zone 0 guidance.

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.
