Reads the relationship between any plant and any place — what the plant actually needs, what the location actually offers, and whether they match for the grower's specific goal. Covers full environmental profile matching, a fit score with gap analysis, a compensation path for partial fit, viability ceiling for survival versus production goals, engineered-environment assessment, variety and cultivar selection, out-of-native-range behavior, and commercial-scale viability.
