University of Exeter wildFIRE Lab testing is published as green, amber, and red classes. Verdict map: green = recommend; amber = mixed; red = avoid. The leaflet defines red dry material as capable of flames over 2.5 m.

The two-page public leaflet and its visual class columns were verified. Eleven unambiguously identified species/cultivars were ingested. Seventeen entries labelled only by a genus or ambiguous common name were excluded rather than assigned a taxon. This is one exeter-wildfire-tree lab program vote.
