This hub compares 3 species records. Across all 4 records, it carries 203 evidence rows from 23 distinct cited sources. The species split is 2 keep-away and 1 awaiting directional evidence. 1 genus-rank record is shown separately; genus-rank claims do not override a species record, and species evidence does not become one verdict for the genus.
Plant forms recorded in this group: shrub. Recorded trait flags: 1 carry invasive risk flags — each cited on its page. These are record-level fields, not a whole-genus flammability claim.
