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.
Appendix S5 mean across six tree-form replicates for Jodina rhombifolia: MT 178 °C; BL 1.7 cm; BT 15 s; BR 0.11 cm/s; BB 1.67 on the six-category interval scale. Fresh field samples were preheated for 2 min at 150 °C and exposed to the blowtorch for 10 s. The paper gives no directional FL threshold.
