When spring arrives, it bring bloom, green grass and bright blue skies. But as fresh as flowers emerge from the earth, those with seasonal allergies will suffer as going outdoor is not worth the risk of sneezing, itching and coughing due to pollen allergies.
Thankfully for flower lovers, there are quite a few varieties of flowers that those with pollen allergies can enjoy. Many flowers produce very little pollen, or the pollen they do produce is too heavy to become airborne.
Some of the flowers are
Hydrangea
Hydrangea bushes produce large, round blooms that are prized for their beautiful pastel colours, such as baby blue, pale pink and lavender. White hydrangea is also a popular choice to wedding and can provide the fullness in floral arrangement.
Roses
Roses are perfect flowers in more ways than one - they are classic, elegant and beautiful as well as being virtually allegen-free. These self-pollinating flowers produce a soft and lovely fragrance without generating airborne pollen.
Peony
With their full blooms and deep green leaves, peonies are a favourite for gardens and bouquets. Their layers of soft petals trap pollen, making them a perfect choice for people with pollen allergies.
Orchid
Orchids are popular flower both potted on their own and incorporated into elegant bouquets. They have a sophisticated and modern appeal that makes them a lovely decoration for offices and other spaces. Orchids produce very little pollen, so you can enjoy them without risking an allergic reaction.
