It's that time of the year for you. Some of our trees are blooming out. Oaks and pine here.

It won't be long until we get that old pollen. I hate that stuff. You sure have a lot of it! It has turned cold here and we are suppose to have some rain coming.

The Bradford Pears are in bloom here, but this cold snap may bring that to a fast end. Actually hope not because the white all over East Tennessee is so pretty right now. My redbud has just begun to bud, hope the cold doesn't get it.

That is a lot of pollen. It's almost that time here too. Time to break out the allergy medicine!

Susie said...

Yeah, my car looks about like that!

marmee said...

i would be sneezing for real. last year on mother's day i had an allergy attack. i am trying to get ready.

Kara said...

That's the one thing I don't miss about home is that pollen. Yuck! We get a little down here but it's nowhere near as bad as Tally!

Marsha said...

Okay, maybe i'm not ready for spring allergy season to start but right now pollen looks alot better than snow :)

I know...it's coming here too...errrr. It almost kills me. I have to hide all my outdoor cushions. MrD spazes out when I tell him it's male reproduction parts. He thinks that's gross.

Dani said...

Same thing here. My poor little one has just been miserable with all the pollen in the air.

Aaaaa-choo is right. I suffer in both the spring and fall.

It's not just Northern Florida.....here in North/Central Florida my eyes are swell & itch every morning! I hate it.

Jan said...

Yeah, I'll be dealing with the same darn thing very soon. My son has terrible allergies and this will not help. Also, it puts a damper on what I can do outside...because I have them too--breathing the stuff in for too long has actually added to my sinus infections.

Dear me - I've never seen so much pollen in one place before. Luckily my allergy to tree pollen is fading as I get older but I do sympathise with anyone who suffers - it's especially cruel for a gardener!

Jill said...

Hey Darla.. Just here from Tootsies blog!
I am in Central Florida and my allergies have been so bad this week! My car is covered with it!

Now that is some pollen. I hope it lets up soon.

Darla: What a neat way to show your pollen, very funny.

Ocala is bad, but the pollen is just crazy in Tallahassee. I never had allergies until I moved there. The benefit is the profuse amount of flowers you'll have there in just a few weeks.
