Per-plant flammability tags — low / medium / high / extreme — on the Toolbox's plant pages and search facets. Verdict map: low = recommend, medium = mixed, high and extreme = avoid. Tier is deliberately omitted: the Toolbox does not document who assigned its flammability values, so rows count as corroboration only, never sole Tier 1 support. Rows for plants already rated by Bardon's 2005 Firewise Landscaping list resolve to bardon-2005 via the chain-to-root rule.
