🌾 Hayfever Season Mythbuster ✨

Lots of folks are dealing with allergy symptoms this time of year - itchy watery eyes, runny nose and sinus congestion that may progress to a sinus headache.

Did you know which plant is to blame for these seasonal allergies commonly known as “hayfever”?

Goldenrod or Ragweed

If you guessed Goldenrod, it’s the popular assumption due to the conspicuous yellow flower that blooms this time of year. Goldenrod is insect pollinated, so little pollen is released into the wind. It is a an abundant food source for bees, butterflies and beetles. Ragweed is actually the culprit since it is wind pollinated, although it can be trickier to spot with it’s insignificant looking green flowers.

Did you learn something new? I never used to know this, but my husband is very attached to the Goldenrod in our yard for the pollinators
