Scaevola hookeri traces its selected lineage to this source entry. The row comes from “Fire Resistant and Retardant Plants” and leads the creeping fan-flower record.

The evidence table carries the species' on-list conclusion. Its source pack is also marked limited evidence, a depth statement distinct from the linked source identity.

A second view of the cited evidence keeps both facts inspectable without implying another lineage. The related plants route supplies comparison, but those records do not inherit this species' selected source, listing status, or limited evidence boundary recorded here for creeping fan-flower.

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.
