Local Environmental Conditions
The landscape around the center of City of Maroondah is heavily wooded, with some built-up land. A nearby park adds mown lawns and planted trees to the local pollen mix. The allergenic tree mix nearby includes ash, oak and maple. Grasses and weeds such as plantain and pigweed round out the local mix.
Ash, oak and maple lead the season in early spring, as temperatures climb to around 10°C, and tree pollen reaches its peak. Grasses take over in early summer, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into early fall. Plantain and pigweed flower through much of the warmer half of the year. Rain is heaviest in spring, often giving short breaks from high pollen levels.
