Allergy Facts
Many allergy sufferers blame the relatively innocent showy goldenrod for their symptoms. The culprit is usually ragweed. Golden rods are insect pollinated, so their pollen does not become airborne. It takes more direct contact with the goldenrod plants than with ragweed to elicit allergic symptoms.
