Local Environmental Conditions
The heart of Fayetteville Botanical Garden is surrounded mainly by built-up land, with a good deal of woodland and some open grassland. With the Fear River nearby, riverside vegetation along its banks contributes to the local mix. Oak and maple are among the allergenic trees nearby. Grasses are also a significant pollen source here.
Tree pollen peaks in mid-spring, when the weather warms to around 15°C and oak and maple are in full flower. Grasses take over in late spring, with temperatures around 20°C, and their pollen lingers into early fall. Weeds on open ground add a smaller late peak from early summer into early fall. Rain is heaviest in summer, often giving short breaks from high pollen levels.

Pollen can travel long distances, but this usually matters only early in the season or during specific wind events.
Are pollen levels in Fayetteville Botanical Garden based on measurements or forecasts?
Pollen data is often misunderstood. Most "pollen levels" are not real-time measurements, but forecasts.
Direct pollen measurements are typically delayed by 1-2 days because they require manual analysis. To show current conditions in Fayetteville Botanical Garden, modern forecasts combine recent measurements, weather data, and information about local vegetation.
This allows us to estimate pollen levels for today and the coming days, not just report the past.
