Fire Resistant and Retardant Plants lists saloop under Einadia hastata. The source describes the shrub as fire-resistant and says it will not burn under continued flame. FireApproved preserves that exact listing as an on-list entry in the evidence table.
The accepted-name field points to C. robertianum, but the evidence pack contains only this one recommendation from Victoria. Accordingly, this record remains limited evidence. The source's decisive language is visible while the page stays clear about the single-citation foundation beneath it.
Fire-resistant — location does not change the cited classification.

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.
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.
