ash pollen.

Fraxinus · Tree

A mid-spring tree pollen, common in cities and along streets.

Usual season in the US

March to May

Typical months; the stronger marks are the usual peak. Seasons shift with region, weather and year.

Where it grows

Ash trees grow throughout the eastern and central US and were planted widely as street trees.

Good to know

Ash flowers around the same weeks as oak and birch, so a high spring day often has all three in the air.
