| Compatibility Check | A bright balcony setup is chosen for sun-loving flowering plants. Is this generally compatible? | safe: Matching light requirements to environment is a core plant-health principle. |
| Pet Safety Check | A dog-friendly home considers Peace Lily in a reachable area. Safe or not safe? | unsafe: ASPCA and pet safety advisories flag Peace Lily as problematic for pets if ingested. |
