A week ago I posted a photo of this tree and it was completely bare. There were some buds but they had not started producing the pollen pods (I don’t know if that’s what they are actually called – but that’s what I call them. They look like little green worms). Now, as you can see the pollen pods are popping and the allergies are flaring.


This is happening super late this year. Usually these little devils are causing allergy trouble by the end of March or the first week in April. Still hoping for the quick and relatively painless allergy season.
