I just look up the facts on Goggle and I guess sometimes its wrong. Its always the same when I go on a forum. I'm ridiculed then I'm violently opposed and then I'm accepted as self-evident. I actually enjoy it because it gives me the motivation to build a business. My window cleaning business is thriving but I have always liked gardening so being a tree surgeon is my next step. 😉

Definately Vespesian type prose.

Don’t sweat it pal.....

 

You’re unlikely to make it past first base on current evidence 😂

I don't know if anyone has said it yet, byut Liriodendron is in the Magnoliacea family, all insect pollinated and therfore producers of very few but large pollen compared with wind pollinators like Betulacea or Pinaceae which just chuck out zillions of fine pollen. I expect a few birch or pine 100 m away would be more asthma-inducing than a Tulip overhanging the property.

We discussed this issue in a previous post about this tree. I have asthma and hayfever and I personally don't find trees a trigger. I think this tulip is being unfairly blamed for allergies when it's more likely that a birch, beech or pine is the cause. I've found my trigger is rapeseed, all the farmers round me grow it and if I walk down a lane I will be crying at the other end! 

I think the fact you can see the pollen from this tree more than the airborne pollen from other trees as the pollen is big and sticky is giving it a bad rep...
