Most people would agree that spring is the most beautiful time of year. It's a real sight to behold when your backyard finally blossoms in a colorful display of bright blooms, but it does come with a downside, and it's one that proves a real nuisance to many of us: a high pollen count.
Seasonal allergies are thought to affect around one in five of us and the symptoms prevent sufferers from spending quality time in the great outdoors many months of the year. While we tend to associate hayfever with grass or tree pollen, there are actually some common offenders that could be lurking in your flower beds, and they might be the root cause of your allergies. The trick to lessening your symptoms is knowing which ones to avoid.
