Local Environmental Conditions
The area around San Diego Country Estates is a mix of scrubland and built-up land, plus some woodland. A stream or river nearby means riverside trees such as willow and plane tree are part of the local pollen picture. Oak heads the list of allergenic trees nearby, ahead of plane tree. Grasses also feature strongly, alongside mugwort among the weeds.
Tree pollen peaks in mid-spring, when the weather warms to around 15°C and oak and plane tree are in full flower. Grasses take over in late spring and keep pollen in the air into early fall. Mugwort brings a final peak through summer. Spring is the wettest time of year, and heavy showers can bring short breaks in pollen.
