Well established · costly if ignored → warn

How it works

Solar geometry. Shadow falls outside the bed rather than across shorter neighbours.

What to do about it

Move tall species to the polar edge; sort by descending height equatorward.

The evidence

Evidence: settled without a trial - solar geometry.
