mugwort pollen.

Artemisia vulgaris · Weed

A late-summer weed pollen and a relative of ragweed.

Usual season in the US

July to September

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

Where it grows

Mugwort grows along roadsides and in disturbed ground, mostly in the East and Midwest.

Good to know

Mugwort flowers just before ragweed and belongs to the same family, the daisies.

In Sneezecast

Google’s pollen forecast doesn’t list mugwort for the United States today, and Sneezecast forecasts only the US for now. The app still has its drawing, so every plant the forecast can name has a picture.
