* BUSH FIRE SAFETY TIP - Being a lower-volatility species Acmena smithii is listed as a safer choice on the plant lists of a number of Rural and Country Fire Authorities and Councils*. When planning a garden in bush fire prone regions it is recommended householders contact their local council or Country Fire Authority for planting advice regarding hazard reduction and planting setback from buildings. While low-volatility plants are a safer choice it should be noted that "fire retardant" does not equal "fire proof" as all plants will burn at high enough temperatures.
