Thanks for the pictures, Mikey. Do you know what kind of pollen their bringing in?
-
B13,
Not sure. There's goldenrod, another weed looking plant same size as goldenrod but with white flowers also i noticed some of the older Bradford pears are having a 2nd small bloom.
-
The white flowers could be asters. They are usually the last to bloom around here. Do they look similar to this?

All asters produce a yellow pollen.

Do you have morning glories blooming?
-
Yes , after Florence, a week an ahalf , noticed the purple small morning glory's. On headge rows an ditch line. Today still the same, lots of off white. Big baskets full and small orange.
-
about this time in Central Texas we get a good bit of stuff coming in from morning glories and asters... the asters evidently will keep producing a small quantity of pollen even after the first freeze..
