In spring, grass pollen becomes common. It often starts in late April and lasts into July. Many lawns, fields, and verges in Lichfield release grass pollen. Timothy, ryegrass, and fescue are some of the main grasses that send pollen into the air.

In early summer, more plants add pollen to the air. Oak trees can still release pollen, and other trees may finish their season. Some weeds also start later. Plantain and nettle can spread pollen in warm, still weather around June and July.

In late summer and early autumn, weed pollen is more likely. Mugwort is a main one in the United Kingdom. It often blooms from July to September. In some places, small amounts of other weeds may also release pollen before cooler weather arrives.
