Plants with showy flowers attract some type of animal pollinator (moths, bees, bats, etc.) and tend to produce less pollen which stays in the flower. Plants that rely on the wind for pollination (trees, lots of weeds, and corn) produce much more pollen which gets spread about as far as possible, hoping that the pollen will land in a receptive place so the plant can reproduce. <br /><br />This is the season where I start my day with a Claritin to help keep the allergy symptoms at bay. Last night, as we were lying in bed, I was sniffing and complaining that only one of my nostrils worked. Steve said, "It's fortunate for you that you only need one nostril to whine."
